'66 Motorola color console, 19" CCII, & '83 Zenith console found today
Well, I think I done good today. A lady called me last week and said she had two console TV's and a 19" I could have for free. I had pictured a '94 Zenith with bad CRT, a '96 RCA Thomson set, and a 2001 Orion 19". When me and my neighbor got there to pick them up, I was surprised to see a circa '66 Motorola color console, a 19" solid state Zenith CCII, and an '83 Zenith console. The lady said they bought the Motorola when they got married in '66 and it lasted longer than any of the other TV's. Someone cut the cord off all 3 sets (no major problem) and they all need a major cleaning. The Motorola has a pretty cool looking control panel. Also notice the Motorola Color Television badge under the CRT. I'm going to try to keep the Motorola and the CCII. The '83 will either be given away, fixed and sold, dumped, used for parts, etc. The owner said she was about to throw them in the dump when a lady she knows told her that I picked up a TV of hers. See, it does pay to pick up those BPC sets. They'll tell someone that actually has an OLD set to give away!
