I found on the market a Sylvania Halolight tv, will pick it up on the weekend

That is my favorite cabinet style of halolite. If you are within a reasonable driving distance I'd trade any of a variety of TVs for it including my working remote Halolite (the shorter set in the pic), a working tabletop model RCA CTC5 round screen color, and possibly other sets for it.

Otherwise, congratulations on your find. IIRC these don't use a power transformer so if you have a variac you could give it a slow careful power up before the recap to get a baseline of the condition of the circuits.

Little too far the set is located in Quebec City, I will bring it to Montreal Canada next week end.

That set, in my opinion, is up in the high-ranks of classic "mid-century" styled TV's. Put that in any room with a '50's theme and it would look awesome.
