Wow what a thread! I would be so excited to be embarking on this project. I know where there is an unbuilt color Heathkit locally but the guy is insisting on keeping it in original box. Not sure which set it is but, he claims to have acquired it in the early eighties.
The parts stock seems to be of nice quality on yours. Probably a good move to perform a leakage test on the original capacitors.
Say, if (heaven forbid!) one of the ICs were bad, would a replacement be procurable on its own, outside of a whole kit?
Not too many people left today who could say they actually built their own TV set!
