Got the set home.
Seems it was downgraded from a "Delux" model to just a "elux"
It has 3 speakers in the bottom of the cabinet, a larger one pointing straight ahead and a smaller one on each side mounted on an angle.
Anyway, there's a little funny business going on inside. Looks like the picture tube was replaced at some point around 1964. One of the mounting nuts for it is missing The tube connector looks like it was glued on, and not meat to come off. On a first look it seemed loose and broken, I was worried the nipple on the end of the tube may have been damaged. As I prodded the connector it started to come apart. I've never see an picture tube with a "permanent" connector on the end. Is this normal? Also the HV lead does not have a rubber cup on the end.
