Another Curtis Mathes Combo

I picked up ANOTHER Curtis Mathes Combo at an estate sale yesterday.
It was the last day of the sale and it was going to get tossed and altho I didn't want it, I couldn't let that happen. It was in the main living room, and was probably still there because the stereo works and the cabinet is in great shape. Haven't "dug" into it yet, altho I did fire up the TV to see what would happen. High voltage comes up with a picture and the screen goes immediatly blank. What do you think that could be?
I'll take the back off today when I have time, but from what I could see, it looks like an RCA CTC 17 chassis. The tube (rectangular) has a slight green halo and thru the vent holes I can see it has a brightner. .
Turntable was replaced sometime in the 70's with a BSR.
Design is neat, because it has two pull out drawers on the front. One for the radio and one for the turntable. Cabinet is solid wood.
I'll try and get pictures posted, but if anyone wants it and can come to Omaha, it's yours. I have some other intersting sets you can take as well. (if wanted)
The Curtis is model: 53MO42, and I think is from 1967
