Call me crazy but I just acquired a second 8PCS41, I couldn't pass it up for $50. It is complete but the cabinet is a real mess. I didn't picture the HV and Audio amp chassis', I've got them at my shop. The set is 100% complete. I bought it as a "parts machine" for my working unit but now I'm trying to decide whether I want to tackle restoring the cabinet or just throw it away? The electronic chassis' are in very good shape, the mirrors are going into the mail soon for re-silvering. The fly-back looks to be in good shape to. I 'm thrilled to have spare part now. I have to think long and hard if I want to restore this cabinet and set, I really don't have room for this in my house. The wife is going to have a bird if she sees this cabinet in my enclosed trailer.
If I restore the cabinet, the top veneer will need o be replaced.
Slight burn-in, very good reading on the tester.
