Man, that sucks. I'd still bring 'er home and put in a CRT, the rest don't look bad, neither does the Zenith.
I'm thinking of grabbing the other two sets. I'm also looking into who currently owns the house, checking at the county records this week. I'm gonna see if there's a way to save the whole damn place. If not, oh well I tried.

WHOAA! Awesome man! Wouldn't it be cool if you ended up buying the place?

Do you think the house is at all salvagable? I know there's water damage of biblical porportions, but it would still be cool to revive the place.

I could save it, I'm a good carpenter. It would take a while but it could be done. Fix the roof and you have all the time in the world to worry about the rest. after further inspection I found that most of the studs and rafters are good, that old cylotex wallboard and plaster is falling all over but I've dealt with that before. Just suit up and start rippin' it down. Out there, you can gut the place and bury all that crap out back. I doubt I'll be able to do anything though, it probably is owned by family that is letting it rot. I wonder if anyone else has inquired about it? That's why I am, you never know.
