CRT Projector Project (I may be Crazy)

I know I am a bit crazy for taking on this project, but with out a little crazy, there is no fun.

So here it is

I Acquired a Toshiba 57H83 TV, for the low low price of Free... I didn't need a TV, i have a small living room with a 40" LCD on the wall and a 37" LCD in the bedroom. My old house has what we call the "Bonus Room", a carport that was enclosed without permits some 40 years ago, Would be a great media room for this TV, but I already have it as a media room with a 100" screen on the wall and an LCD projector on the ceiling.

So enough Back story, Here is the status and the idea:
I want to turn the light box from this Toshiba TV into an overhead CRT projector to display on my 100" screen.

So far, I have removed all the electronics from the cabinet of the TV, so now I have the N3PSP chassis sitting on the table, able to procect a 75" image on the ceiling, and got it focused to a degree.

The problems

Need to flatten out the mounting, or make the angle adjustable for the red and blue CRTs, need to move the CRT mounting plate to the front of the chassis to make it more ceiling mount friendly, and possible do a vertical flip, to get a better angle to the screen when it is mounted with less modifications.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, and of course, I will get some pictures attached as soon as I can.
