XL-100 console specs?

Available locally, but priced way too high and I don't like the cabinet anyway. Perhaps the price will come down to earth fairly soon and I'll have a decent parts set. The price already dropped a little since I first saw it yesterday. I'm just wondering approximately what year it's from and what chassis it might have.

looks like ctc68 from 1973-74 model year.i have one of these sets and it is awesome.very,very good chassis,very close in reliability to the zeniths of the era.if working with a good crt,it could be worth up to 150.00 in my opinion

No kidding? Well, we'll see what happens. That's the same chassis that Tim's XL-100s have if I'm not mistaken.

By the way, the asking price is $375, so it has quite a way to come down.

I inquired about it but no answer yet... got to wonder if I scared off the seller with my instructions for a basic CRT test.

If it is DOA, that could mean a big discount.

Well, either it doesn't work or a total flake is selling it because I never got a reply. Also, the picture in the ad is upside-down.
