Look what the cat dragged home!.


I got me a 1938 Westinghouse WRT 703, It uses the TRK-12 chassis that was made by RCA.
Overall it's in great condition and the restoration will be slow and meticulous.







A modification to the tuner was the big bad thing that happened to this set.
I promise that I will not turn it into liqueur cabinet or fish tank this one, My mission is to return the set back to it's original condition.



Aside from a cabinet in fine condition take a look at the chassis pictures,
No rust.



How about the HV chassis that is pristine and clean.



More clean.





Here is the Television signal and deflection chassis, Note modification to tuner.

Tuner modification.



I will be attending the Early Television Convention and will get a good look at the sister set at the museum. Until then I will just hand rub some Howard bees wax into the finish.
