Admiral 22x12 Questions

[Billzimm2]

Sorry for taking so long to get back to you guys. I'm only 22 so I'm busy juggling work and school along with a girlfriend. I did get a chance to take out the chassis tonight. I took a look underneath and it looks to be mostly original. There are a few replacement caps under there, but honestly everything looks to be in decent shape. A few of the caps seem to be either leaky or bulging which doesn't surprise me. I will include some pictures.

Also I can only get the Sam's manual from that site. The Riders link for my chassis just points to that Sam's manual. Does someone have a copy that they downloaded a while back that they wouldn't mind sending me?

On a side note: Bob, I watched your video on this set and mine in fact has that screen on the bottom of the chassis. It isn't attached to the cabinet, but is attached to the bottom of the chassis. If you have any questions, feel free to email me, I am willing to take more pictures if you want me to. You seem very very knowledgeable on these sets and I have spent the last week or so watching all your YouTube videos. Your work is amazing.

If you haven't already seen them, you might also enjoy my videos on the 20X11 and 20X12 restorations which use the very similar 20X1 chassis.

Thanks for the pictures. This is the first good picture I've ever seen of that metal cover Now I just need to get someone to fabricate a few

I see what you mean about that Riders link. The 20Z1 is actually covered in vol. 5 I believe. I do have a copy but have not scanned it yet.

The Riders for the 20X1 / 20Y1 is pretty darn close so you could start with that.
