I haven't had much spare time lately, but I did give it the once-over and checked the CRT, which I believe is a 12QP4. There is no type marked on the base, so I'll have to confirm the type later. The emissions were a little sleepy at first, but after a 10 minute cook it came right up. Cut off is good, too.

Here's a first look with the back off:

I'm really excited about restoring this set! The only issue I see is some flaking paint on the back side of the dial glass. Fortunately, it's just plain dark brown paint and not any of the logo or other lettering.
