Come to think of it, that GE may be a TX82 chassis set.

The more I think about it, the MGA or Sylvania may be your best options; but, for no more than they want for them, you probably couldn't go wrong with any of them. If one dies, you aren't out much.
Could you give me an time frame for that RCA chassis? The set I looked at was from the late 70s or early 80s, since it had turret tuners. I may have read the number wrong too. The RCA was in a different shop with bad lighting.
