They were a lower tube count chassis, not great reliability(someone on ARF had a ~47 page thread on his woes with one of these that wouldn't stay fixed) , and they used a goofy set specific air core flyback and unusual impedance yoke which weren't great (RCA would have stuck with them if they were because they were cheaper to make) and you can't really use a universal test jig yoke with them because of how they're made.
They're not the worst sets out there, but mine I acquired dirt cheap as a CRT donor for my Zenith porthole, gave a resurrection for YouTube content, immediately tried to sell after that, ended up selling the cabinet and scrapping the chassis.
They can be made to work ok and your cabinet style is less ugly than mine was, but it's not a chassis I have desire to have back.
