Hello Bryan,
You are right, I like color, especially "vintage" color, mid seventies and backward. Seems the phosphor used back then had a more pleasing hue!! I really like watching my James Bond movies on VHS on that '75 xl100 I recently refurbed. But there is nothing wrong with b/w. I drove last fall 700 miles to Batavia to pick up a '63 Zenith b/w console that drh4683 had for sale. I need to post photos of that some day. It is pretty!! I have looked forever trying to find a late 60's/early seventies RCA b/w console we had when I was a kid. I'd sure like to find one of them, but I suspect that they all have ended up in landfills.
BTW I missed a Silvertone UHF converter in the same wheat color on ebay a few months back. Wish I had it to go with the set.
You are correct I think re: restoration. Should be pretty simple, especially given the original schematic is with the set.
