opening the back doors at the tv shop this morning and there sat a zenith chromacolor 2 it is in great shape i plugged it in and it fired right up. it has the instant on feature. it has the flat chassis in it. the picture on it was without an antenna hooked up. the crt is nice and bright. however i had to turn the horiz hold all one way for it to lock in. these pics. were taken with my cellphone.

i figured it was headed to the dump when they thought hey lets just leave it here. problem is i have no more room at home for this set.

If I was a little closer, I'd take it off your hands!

zenith2134 10-31-2008 09:26 PM

So would I!

I imagine the owner was thinking that he/she was finding it a good home.

At least they were being thoughtful of you! How many times have we've seen ignorance take over any rationality....

That could be the case. There's been many times when I'd find a TV in my carport when I got up in the morning or when I'd come home. I don't know where most of them came from to this day.

That looks like a 25EC58Z flat chassis! I bet the original owner got tired of waiting 30+ years for it to quit working so they could buy a new set....

on the back of the set it said upstairs zenith tv. the model # is at the shop i will post it monday. it does have the flat chassis it it.

Seems like a reverse trick or treat. Strangers show up in the night to leave you a little treat! great picture without an antenna, I even recognize Snook the stoner sloth from that PBS kids show.

basically a big mushroom that grew on your door step overnight!
