That's a great save, the CRT alone is money in the bank. I sold many of these after they started appearing curbside at 10-11 years old. There were usually very minor issues and of course, I replaced the HV hold-down capacitor. The 1974-78 models were ALL dependable and rugged, I even relocated the CRTs-chassis into older cabinets.
Those one-knob varactor tuners were the only annoying issue, especially when you NEEDED UHF. I forget what worked on them. The turret tuners were an issue too, along with the detent UHF tuners, that needed the shaft grounding springs cleaned.
