I think it was a hybrid but worse yet it may have been
a SS flat chassis.

The people doing this would make better furniture than the cabinets do.

Now if that guy had just got the better cable package with more channels
that tv would still be in one piece..........

I didn't know those still existed. One can always get more channels, but better programming?

I saw an empty Zenith cabinet at a thrift and the chassis location label was still intact. Sure enough, 25EC58.

Wow.This reminds me of people gutting out and defacing classic antique radios.

I can see somebody putting a flat screen TV in the cabinet.

Alot of those console end up as bars,cabinets TV,VCR stands and bookcases over the years.

I know .About 25 years ago I had friends call me over to take the chassis and the pix tube out of the cabinet.

I had never seen a cabinet like that. If only one of us were to get it, restoring it with the guts of an ugly, beat-up example (lots of yellowed Avantes around) would be fairly easy. The hardest part would be finding a replacement for the missing back panel...
