old Silvertone worth restoration?

This old beast has been in storage forever. An old Silvertone Suburbanite 24" b/w console in the ever popular wheat color!!!
Powers right up with a nice bright full screen raster, but has a problem with vertical hold. Sound available on all 12 channels.
Cabinet is dirty but should clean up easily.
Can not find a date on the monster, but the original manilla envelope containing the manual and schematic is still with the set. I can only find a copyright date of 1958, which looks about right, given the sets looks and VHF only tuner.
Looks like it is missing a trim piece on top of the safety glass, and rod spreaders between the legs, but otherwise complete.
I guess its only use would be to stick a vcr on top of the set and watch vintage b/w movies.

Any thoughts???
