The tube's heaters lighting means the set is getting power and that at least part of the circuits are still functional . With neither picture nor sound a B+ voltage issue is one highly likely possibility especially if any old capacitors are still lurking about in there . If it has been properly restored maybe your just seeing the "infant mortality" of the many new components ? It it hasn't been properly restored , even when this most latest issue is fixed , you'll likely begin frying expensive parts if you keep running it ...

The TV was restored by it's previous owner, who is a collector that seems to know a lot about those sets. But the truth is, that he admitted to me that he didn't replaced
all of the capacitors of this TV. I remember he saying something like it was a lot of work. So that might be the origin of the problem, right?
