At least when those old TV's break; they can usually be repaired. Most new stuff is so cheap built and so small that it's just not worth it. Would your '74 Zenith by chance use the horizontal 25EC58 solid state chassis? If it does, it probably will still be going in 33 more years. I see the newer junk, and, then I see the build quality of the '68 Magnavox tube set that's currently apart in my shop. It's hard to imagine nowadays needing a wrench larger than a 1/4" to remove the chassis.
