[PredictaNoob]

If it is OK with the group, I'd like to chronicle my efforts to restore this motel salvage set. I've seen this done here, and quite honestly, the documented steps that others here have bothered to share was the catalyst for my decision to attempt a similar project. This first installment of photos were taken by the guy I bought the set from, so this is how it looked when it arrived at my P.O. Its a 59 Philco Predicta, Debutant model, 10L43 chassis. It was missing the back and power cord, but otherwise complete. It arrived with one small crack to the CRT cover, only visible from the top and won't effect viewing. It smells like hell, if Frank Sinatra were Satan.
