Naperville is about 30 miles south west of chicago near where I-355 and I-55 meet. I caught the topic on this, and man if I had the room too I'd snag that, but I'm just not much of a TV collector. I hope someone gets this besides the trash man.

Just outside Chicago.

That's a joke, son.

ends in 20 minutes.. wish me luck! looks like it might end at 99 cents!
Did anyone else notice the date the pics were taken? I didn't 'till now... makes me a little nervous. 1-14-06 was a while ago
hopefully the camera has the wrong date!

I'd bid on it, but not with gas prices the way they are. By the time I got it home, I'd probably have upwards of $1.98 into it... DOUBLE!!!

I won the set for $10.55! not a bad price for a working set! I'll update after I get it.

I'm glad you were able to save it :yes:

Great score for ten bucks! This is another example of Zenith ultra-quality workmanship. A great B/W set that will go forever. Here's my '64, looks like practically the same one.

Awrite !! Great save !!

Glad you got the set. I was thinking about it also, but decided with fuel prices I did not want to add to my $800.00 a month fuel bill.

That was a nice score , especially for 10 bucks :yes:
Sandy G had mentioned Mr Dumpster .
With a cabinet like that , the other threat is Mr Fishtank . :thumbsdn:

Great to hear it has a good home .

Always nice to see somebody do the honorable thing.:D

I haven't been posting or doing much tv stuff for the last week as we had a family emergency. I just wanted to say that I went and picked it up last sat. and it looks better in person than in the pics! I will restore it to full operating condition in a month or so. I will update then, oh and btw, kbmuri, your set looks and works beautiful. I hope I can get this one going that nicely.

my grandmother had that same set. Unfortunatly it got thrown out twenty five years ago becuase it needed a picture tube and the repair told her it wasnt worth it . Wish i could have saved it , if that zenith was closer , i would take the drive and grab it .
