Well, the cabinet refinishe project took longer than I expected. 2 weeks total. Cabinet had a number of major gouges and scratches, so the repair work was more involved than originally thought. Front doors were of particular difficulty, as they took about a dozen coats of lacquer to level all the scratches. One coat per day with wet sanding every other coat.

I hope to one day get a good crt for this set. This one is not very good. I have to drive the video so hard that it causes poor picture detail.

Below are several photos.

First one is the chassis sitting next to an RCA 12" to get an idea of the size of the crt.

Then the complete set sitting next to an RCA 21" console for relative size comparison.

The last 3 are just to show.

All in all an interesting set, but picture quality is inferior to most of the sets I have worked on. I think a better crt would improve that issue a great deal though.

Enjoy!
