I recent picked up this 12" blonde Zenith porthole at an estate sale. I may go back for the other if it's still there. Had to save room in my car for a CTC-5





The chassis inside are in excellent condition. Mostly Zenith branded tubes and no signs of any servicing. 12LP4 Picture tube tests good.







That's what I love to see






A few cosmetic issues unfortunately. The biggest being the hinged control doors are missing :tears" Anyone have a spare set?

Also, the top appears to have been clear coated with something that has cracked and crazed. The sheen and feel is different than the rest of the cabinet. Reminds me of the acrylic finish on German consoles from the 60s.

Also looks like the original speaker is gone? It is branded Zenith, but small and mounting holes don't line up.
