I have just finished a VT 71- and am starting on a second one. I learned a neat trick from a fellow restorer about the CRT mounting on these- I use a styrofoam pipe insulator that is available at Home Depot. With a little work from a blade you can form it around the inside of the cabinet where the goo used to be. Carefully knead the tube into it and there you go. Use a light grey one made for a 1/2" pipe. Looks ok from a few feet away, centers the tube, and saves 50 bucks. Just fine for a personal workshop heater such as this.
