Early color is quite a challenge if you are new to tube gear and TV work. If you are dead set on restoring it I highly reccomend you work on a AA5 tube radio and a monochrome tube TV first to get a feel for the process and work your way up to the substantail undertaking that is an early color TV. That set is quite rare and valuable and needs to be preserved. The CRTs in these sets are prone to vacuum leaks and very expensive and hard to source (I had been looking for over 5 years to find one for another set) so it is advisable to confirm it is good with a CRT tester before sinking tripple digits into new capacitors and such.

I've been wanting to own one of these for years. I'm going to send you an email to offer you some options.
