55 Westinghouse 21" B&W

Here is the 55 Westinghouse B&W I brought back from MI. I am currently in the process of recapping it. This one was used long after it stopped working well. Lots of melted caps and burned out tubes. Several repairs with bad soldering. One of the 5U4s (there are 2) had an open filament. Weak CRT, but I used the rejuvinator, and it seems to have worked. I like the copper plated chassis and the swivel base, cosmetically this set is in great condition, except for the missing trap-door in front and volume knob which I broke myself trying to get this out of an attic in Michigan, this set is much heavier than it looks: all metal cabinet and chassis.
