I have a Philips Magnavox TV that's currently my garage TV. I like to call it my gutless wonder, a refrence to the Muntz TV's, because the chassis board is less then half the size of a normal chassis board, AND has a large hole in it where the neck board was stamped out.

The casing is thin cheap plastic. I had to glue the channel buttons back on. It's a CHEAP TV from 2000, yet the CRT is still nice and strong.

Still, it's my garage TV because when it breaks, I won't miss it. So I don't much care that it's exposed to the hot and cold.

Oh yeah, I had to solder a new channel up button contact because its last owner managed to break the old one... and yes, the foil trace broke, so putting that button in was kinda fun...
