I pretty much concur with everyones responses and opinions and feelings. Its always interesting to read about other peoples take in this.
Me - I take the getting it going approach and generally replace all the old components etc so the set can function properly. I would probably never take on a real basket case project or the likes. I try and find sets in good original condition and luckily most of my TVs have been like that. Needless too say that I'm probably the only one in New Zealand who is actually collecting and repairing these old NZ televisions so I try and get anything that shows up. Unfortunately I am running out or space and may need too have a big reshuffle in the den and maybe rent a storage space if any more larger future sets show up. I'm sure all of you can relate to this one. We are all caretakers for these vintage TVs and Hope that future generations will appreciate them as much as us after We depart this earth.
Please excuse my poor gramar as I'm typing this on a cheap chinese made crappy andriod tablet...:-)
