a real challange?

And I do mean challenge.
For I have the guts of an old FADA 895 Television.
And I do mean guts, as in no case / enclosure.
The story of this TV, it was built into the wall in a bar in the basement in my grandparents home in Pennsylvania, only the 10 inch screen ( face-place, controls ) could be seen from the bar, and the chassis was in a closet in another room behind.
It was in it when they got the place, and told me it never worked. ( only gave a raster )
when the place was sold, I did not want to see it destroyed, so I had it boxed up and shipped to me.

That was quite a few years ago.

Biggest problem is, no enclosure.
Another problem is, it has been damaged in the moves over the years, 1st IF coil is broken, have all the bits, not sure if it can be fixed.

It's VERY old and has been sitting for almost 40 years.


I'm not sure WHAT it is, but it DOES say FADA 895 on the chassis. And it looks a lot like an RCA 630 chassis.

What ever it is,,, it wont be easy.
