My first roundy was almost a different silvertone than the metal one......I came upon a HUGE Slivertone stereo console that had had the roundy fail, and the previous owners had gutted the TV, stuffed a 70's-mid 80's pushbutton tuning Silvertone table set in the place once occupied by the bezzle of the roundy and modded the stereo system to work in it's absence.

If I had known that I'd get a metal cabinet Silvertone months later I'd have took the whole console instead of gutting the stereo because I really loved the look of that console cabinet.

I also once gutted the remaining speakers and tuner from a late 60's Maggie that had an 80's zenith in it.

It seems that when tube color sets appear in the wild in my neck of the woods they always are missing the CRT and main chassis.
