Solid state Philco-Ford color sets were rare, 25 years ago. In close to 30 years of finding old TV's, I've only seen 3 solid state Philco-Ford color sets. One was a 19" motel set, one was a 19" set for consumer use, and the other was a 25" color TV/stereo combo with a chassis similar to this one. Your set looks like it may have an RCA CRT in it and it looks to have a varactor tuner; which, was high end in the early '70's.

This is a great find. Very rare chassis, we were the
biggest shop for miles & only saw 6 at the most.
As said start with a roll of solder. They get cold
joints everywhere especially the mother board.
Also known for multiple problems.
Keep us posted & good luck !
