I've never had a Zenith with this chassis before. Looking through my manuals it looks like it was only used for 2 years, on some 56, and most 57 models.
I also recently picked up a binder which contains images of all the Zenith TVs for 1957. I scanned the 2 pages for this set, and some of the space command advertising that was included.

I think Zenith got the message when all their long-time dealers and servicers complained about, how hard it was to repair them, because of that design.
It probably started with the "Y" chassis.
