1987 Zenith System 3 SD2767H

[ELzekio]

Hello everyone, while browsing a thrift store I recently found this beast. Never owned a vintage looking television like this and so because I always liked old electronics, it was like love at first site. Taking a closer look it is obvious that must have been sitting for well over 10 years but for the whopping price of $5 I was not going to pass it up.

I just got done cleaning it and it is one of the most disgusting jobs I've ever done.

In the limited research I have done it seems that people who knew televisions say that zeniths build quality dropped off during the late 1980s and people did not like servicing them.

I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with this television for a similar model.
Do you consider it a good television for the time?
Is there anything specific that commonly goes bad with this model?

It seems to me that this had to be one of the top of the line models of zenith system 3 televisions for the time. I never knew a television this old that had two RCA video inputs after I used it a while and got it back up and running I could tell the picture quality is very good (for the time) very similar to many of the late 1990s CRT televisions.
