I'll say you've got a nice set there. My uncle had a Zenith with an identical control panel as this one. I think I remember seeing a date of '66 on his. His went out in the early '80's and sat there until the early '90's when he let me get my 13 year old hands in it. I remember plugging it in and all it had was a raster. Probably an easy fix; but, I hacked it to pieces so I could see how it was made. Since I've aged and matured a few years; I've kicked myself for destroying that set. In fact, the cabinet and CRT is still burried in the basement. The tube was a Chromacolor that was installed in the early '70's.

Oh, I promise not to hack anything else that has potential to be restored.
