There are likely more examples of original or "nearly original" sets around than those that have been rebuilt with modern parts. Most sets that can be found have dead CRTs... once the CRT is gone there is little to no motivation to rebuild the electronics. However, It is also good to have a few very good working examples for comparison to modern technology.
