OK, 2 things I remember....Lots of bad flybacks too.

I was able to look inside the back and I believe I saw the horizontal output and damper tubes mounted on the metal chassis The high voltage cage is on the left hand side if you are facing the front of the set. It was hard to make out any other details as there is almost forty years of dust inside the set.
