The set in the picture I bought to part out, just as a parts set.
I own the same in mint condition, but I was able to fix that set
in only 5 minutes, so I give it more time, just to teach the CRTs
for this set to work again after many voltageless years.

Boy, it is awful heavy!

These kind of Predicta-like sets were made in other countries, too.

What parts are you planning to take from the parts set in the picture? If your just taking chassis parts out of it maybe one of us in the states (maybe me) could buy the CRT and cabinet from you... It probably would not be too hard to stuff a Philco Predicta chassis in there to make it work without having to look for rare foreign parts or making a standards converter to drive the Swedish chassis...
