Progress on the CTC2B, 21CT55, 21 inch roundie color from 1954

Some progress on this set, the CTC2B, 21CT55, from 1954. I removed the chassis, yoke, and convergence assembly. The set looks to be in really good shape, and it looks to be a low hours set. Yes, there is some rust on the tube shields, but other than that, it's clean, even the flyback looks really good, just a small amount of wax drippings. Here are some pictures of the chassis before recapping, and cleaning. Even the resistors don't seem to be discolored with heat and age. Next for me is the tedious task of recapping, checking tubes, cleaning, and replacing several peaking coils that are open.
