I'm looking at Sams 1850 (Sept, '79) which covers a Zenith 19KC52 that looks like the one stuck in the Admiral. This particular set has the zoom function. Of course, it could be newer because my dad brought home a 1980 Zenith from the ditch that looked like this set but used the 9-160 style chassis. He had the 9-160 changed and it worked great. We wound up giving it to the church for the youth to use.
I really hate to see stuff hacked up like that Admiral is. I used to find a lot of combos around here that were either missing the TV or had a newer set installed.
PS -- Wasn't the Zenith K line the last of the fold down CCII chassis? I do remember seeing a couple of '79 23" Zenith consoles with the single knob tuner. All they had was "Zenith" on the front. There was no mention of "Solid State - Chromacolor II" as the older ones were. But, they had the fold down chassis. I think one was a November, '79 model.
