Love that Sears "console". I see those come up on eBay every once in awhile, but they get up there in price, and then the shipping kills it and it becomes a $200 set. I saw that little FoMoCo one a couple years ago at our San Diego classic car swap meet. It was alongside what looked like a Sony 303 that was marketted as a Mercedes Benz in-car TV.

Thought they were trippy to look at, but I've been into modern "ICE" (In-Car Entertainment) designs for years, and don't currently own any "classic" car....or I woulda jumped allover these, especially that Sony.

I do have two "bedside" TV sets. One is a little 4" Magnavox AM/FM with a blue flourescent clock. The other is a great little panasonic micro that superimposes a small blue clock right over the bottom corner of the 1.5" screen with mirrors! I do also now have an actual indash car stereo by some odd brand....that has a 1.5" b/w CRT right on the front of it. That would be my only actual "car TV" I own yet, but I actually run it from a 12V power supply in the bedroom sorta "installed" in the bed's cabinetery (It's just sitting in a cabinet with an old school annoying "spectrum analyzer" style equalizer...VERY '80s)
