I have a 7070 and it's a decent performer. Most low end B&W sets lacked DC restoration back then, and yes, it sucks, but that's the way it was. Every 7070 made is missing the Leather Handle, or it's so rotted as to be useless. You could have one made but it'll cost more than the set is worth.
I have quite a few of the RCA models from that time, hard to work on, fussy vertical circuits, but great looking sets with their gold trim, none of them come close to having a picture as good as my cheapo model, series string, 1957 17" Hotpoint (GE). Maybe the RCA's were better for DXing back in the day, but that's not important anymore.
