TC-168 showed up tonight, not in very bad shape at all. Finish needs touching up, but all in all I'm happy for only $100 spent. Proto chassis fits like a glove, not even an inch on either side of it and the support legs for the CRT mask wouldn't make it at all. Gonna have to figure something out for the CRT mounting, since the front would now be held in the cabinet and the rear supported by the chassis. It used to all be supported by the chassis, not a good scheme with that flimsy plastic thing.
Still waiting to hear about the 9-T-79, I hope to have those details ironed out in the next few days. If/when it gets here, I will evaluate them both and make a decision about which will become the new home for this set.
