I don't know. That tuner looks original to me.
I think it may be a company upgrade.
Looks like a military style set from the late 40's. I suspect it worked.
It would have to be re built now. Atleast electrolytics, and, the loose paper caps.
I love the wiring. Looks so Dumont!
I saw that set yesterday on eaby. Neat set. Wish it was mine.
I think it should be saved, and, restored.
On your Zenith. Maybe you could talk to the other guy who did a retro in ARF, and, retrofit another flyback to your Zenith.
I wouldn't wreck this rare set for that.
Neat piece of American history.
Is that a 10FP4 alum. pix tube it has?
