What I was thinking, I have found a set out here, well, a shell of one, it's an old rca. Not sure of year but I think it's a ctc-28. Looks awfully similar to the ctc-28 I used to have as a kid that I played nintendo on every day. This set still has the crt, hopefuly good (not in my possession) but the chassis is missing. What I would love to do is strip the chassis out of a newer set, probably one with OSD and closed captioning, (your standard run-of-the mill of todays crt sets, and install it into the rca cabinet and somehow get that chassis to work with the delta crt thats still there, this would be an awesome combination of old and new! Considering that the chassis is gone, the cabinet looks great. What would it take to get this monster to work? Or should I find a way to retrofit the new set's crt into this cabinet too... My idea was to make the set look as original as possible and mount the push button controls and the IR sensor underneath in an inconspicious area.
BTW, didn't Zenith and some other companies make an older style rectangular CRT with the more rounded edges during the mid 70's that used inline concept? If so and I got my hands on that CRT, wonder if it would work?
