Looks like it lost about 22 feet of the cable.

It also appears to be missing the front half of the CRT case/shell. But, for $60, you saved a lot of money that can go to pay for the missing items! Those sets are worth at least several hundred dollars if complete, if I remember right.

Easily worth a few 100. This grungy, untested CRT and cable recently went for $350. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Old-Space-Ag...-/400726924733

pictures update

well it's rough but complete. and the crt is well very GOOD looks to be a replacement and passes life test great. it has had termites in the back legs and the bottom of the crt stand. i did not take the back off just checked the crt. the knobs are all there and there is a long section of the cord to the crt cut and spliced. i am not going to restore this set. the front cover to the crt is here molded over and stinks. so this will go on the auction site sometime. thank for looking.

I'm interested in the big plug at the end of the CRT cable if all the pins are there.

I'm interested in the set if you definitely have no plans to restore it. What part of Mississippi are you in?
