New Aquisition - Admiral Roundie

[hi_volt]

Another roundie for the collection. This is the Admiral set that Azbigsam was looking at a few weeks ago. He decided to pass on it, so I just couldn't let it go. It's now sitting in my living room waiting to be cleaned up a little. The model number is L-7179.

The cabinet has some dirt and a few scuffs and scratches probably from being stored by the last owner, but nothing that can't be cleaned up with a little Gojo and some Old English. The chassis is, indeed, a CTC11, and is quite clean. Obviously the set was never in a smoker's home and was well maintained over its lifetime, judging by the excellent condition of the chassis and general overall good condition of the cabinet. It has had a rebuilt grade B CRT installed at some point, which checks strong. I haven't turned it on yet, but Sam saw it running a yesterday and said the picture was good, so I'll probably give it a go on my variac either tomorrow or Monday. The grill cloth needs to be replaced. It isn't torn, just slowly disintegrating.
