View Full Version : philco predicta tandem for me rcaman 07-12-2014, 10:43 PM i am supposed to be getting this philco predicta tandem for $60.00 have not seen it in person but agreed to the price. anyone know the close model number. wish me luck. bandersen 07-12-2014, 10:47 PM Good luck! It uses the 9L38 chassis. WISCOJIM 07-12-2014, 10:54 PM Looks like it lost about 22 feet of the cable. . ChrisW6ATV 07-12-2014, 11:11 PM It also appears to be missing the front half of the CRT case/shell. But, for $60, you saved a lot of money that can go to pay for the missing items! Those sets are worth at least several hundred dollars if complete, if I remember right. bandersen 07-12-2014, 11:16 PM Easily worth a few 100. This grungy, untested CRT and cable recently went for $350. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Old-Space-Age-Philco-Predicta-TV-As-Is-For-Parts-Not-Working-No-Returns-/400726924733 rcaman 07-13-2014, 05:25 PM it's here and it is in rough condition will post pictures tonight. rcaman 07-13-2014, 11:58 PM well it's rough but complete. and the crt is well very GOOD looks to be a replacement and passes life test great. it has had termites in the back legs and the bottom of the crt stand. i did not take the back off just checked the crt. the knobs are all there and there is a long section of the cord to the crt cut and spliced. i am not going to restore this set. the front cover to the crt is here molded over and stinks. so this will go on the auction site sometime. thank for looking. rcaman 07-14-2014, 12:03 AM more pictures looking at the pictures i see small holes on the top front of the wood cabinet. will have to check that out tomorrow it is so hot here in Mississippi. bandersen 07-14-2014, 11:07 AM I'm interested in the big plug at the end of the CRT cable if all the pins are there. truetone36 07-14-2014, 02:40 PM I'm interested in the set if you definitely have no plans to restore it. What part of Mississippi are you in? rcaman 07-14-2014, 07:45 PM i am in northeast Mississippi top right corner. zip 38827 i am not going to restore this set. i have other sets you might want if you come for this one. thanks for looking |
