Steve, my intent is to not modify the cabinet at all (other than what has already been done, which I want to un-do as much as possible). I figure, the newer chassis and CRT/yoke are probably both smaller enough that I can make adapter brackets to bolt into the existing original nut inserts, remote-mount the raster controls under the proper holes in a replacement control panel, and maybe some type of gear/lever system to control the tuner from knobs/shafts in their proper place on the panel as well. "First, do no harm" is the way to proceed, and I am in no hurry.
Do you know if the silver-gray paint covering the inside of the cabinet is something special (heat-resistant or any other specific properties)? Where it has flaked off a bit, it looks pretty thick.
I just noticed-this is a 50 Hz set, according to the label. I will have to study the schematic diagrams-does that affect the set's operation in any way, I wonder?
