Quite likely very difficult! Years ago, I had a beige colored model of the same set with no knobs, no back, rust on the chassis and a slightly off-color repaint job (the beige was somewhat pinkish) however, the set worked well, with mostly original parts... another collector wanted it badly, but I did not want to trade/sell it because the tube was so unique. He quickly found me a gassy "dud" that I use for "show and tell" to this day. He indicated that gassy ones were pretty easy to find. Not a good sign!
Hope your CRT turns out to be good!
