Had a neighbor once with that EXACT model in clean condition. A true beauty. :p
In '79, I did the usual tube tests-replaced any weak or shorted, record changer clean/lube, pots-switch-tuner cleanings, filament wires to 6GU7s and the solder connections and she used it for 4-5 years. I was so thrilled to see a roundy be a daily driver, so I did the full razzle-dazzle on it. IIRC she put more hours on the HiFi than TV. It was a CTC15 At her funeral last year I asked her daughter what became of it....no luck...gone  Always more room for a cherry piece like that, Really hope you get it Steve!

It's a ctc-16, easy to work on. Pretty reliable as long as the fly is good. Can you get a pic of that fly?

Fly looks pretty good. doesn't look like a 16 fly. Can you read the ctc # on the back?

That makes more sense. Could not read the ctc # very well in that pic

It's just that flybacks are hard(but not impossible) to get so having a good one is a benefit. The chassis itself is pretty decent. I would wait until you have a pic tube and see if at least you can get a raster before you spend a bunch of time and money on it

well the picture tube arrived today, have been battling bronchitis and the flu for almost the last three weeks, so have not been doing much of anything other than resting. I think i'm starting to turn the corner. Hopefully by next week, i'll feel well enough to jump back on these sets.
