The plastic covers of the yokes of this era like to rot off....If the terminals etc are not shorting to anything, make a piece of plastic to slip between the centering rings and the terminal (so you don''t get electrocuted while adjusting centering) and call it good.
It appears to have the same chassis as my 1953 Zenith (only the tuner is mounted to the chassis in mine). Watch out for the parts list and schematic having different values listed for one of the vertical caps (go with the vlaue installed)....That royally screwed up the restoration on my 1953 for a while.
Even If the CRT is shot, at 30$ you could get that back in parts if you had to.
