TV or not 2B That is the question.

Had an opportunity to pick up a Emerson 1032. So I did. It's a 55 /57 ish 14 inch portable in a wood case. The top flips up for the controls. The case is done, sooooo done. As expected the 25 caps need to be replaced along with 10 sections worth of electrolytics, selenium rectifiers. There is no safety glass. I havent even tested the tubes yet. The CRT checks great, even at reduced fillament volts. The DY plastic cover has crystalized and a knob is missing. The wooden case could be duplicated by me.
My question. Is this a special set of some type worth saving? My gut feeling is "Parts Donor"
