Good luck in restoration of such a wonderful television!

I'm thinking now that it came from the factory that way. My Sams shows a top view of the chassis and sure enough there is that piece of plastic riveted to the HV cage. Of course the cover is off for the photo or there never was one.
I'll post a picture later.
Here's the picture: I suppose that this was because of the metal tube and a HV cover could still be used.
