Definitely a weird one! I don't think it's a Heathkit, as I've had several Heathkits, and they're more like a CTC-16-ish layout, or an upright Packard-Bell-type swingout chassis for the all-tube sets. This one looks very 50s, but obviously with Compactron sweep tubes, it's 60s. Or maybe a 50s design originally, and carried over with updates to the tube lineup to the 60s to avoid new licensing fees, or etc...
