Duncan's 1958 Philco Predicta Holiday TV thread

After restoring my 1960 Maganavox, I was looking for a new project.
(thread here)

I picked up my first Predicta TV! I've always been on the search for one of these.

This will be a build thread about repairs done to this model.

I think this is a 1958 Model year, Model G4242M.

Ordered a photofact folder, waiting for that to arrive.

Seems to have an issue with the vertical output circuit, all the capacitors are original. Will be removing the chassis soon to replace those and test the tubes.

High voltage cage is 100% missing. Not sure where I can find another. Also missing adjustment knobs.
