Finally scored a Zenith 4-tube hybrid color set.

Been wanting one for years. Had a lead on one from a Michigan collector on here, but after years we never managed to connect to make the deal work.

While trying to get knobs for a different set I stumbled on an ad by a local Wisconsinite for free TVs 2 we're not sets I wanted to make space for but ended up taking anyway...a CCII tin can Zenith and a SS Heathkit, I'm more of a tubes guy. The 3rd set Sam's told me is a 4-tube hybrid, but the owner sounded like he wanted to keep the cabinet to repurpose...And I know why...It's a 4-Tube Avanti!

After some back and forth I struck a deal to buy it with cabinet for $200 on the condition I take the other sets and some parts...
Got the 2 25" monsters into storage after purchase yesterday while I figure out where to put them at home. The 19" monochrome Heathkit and parts are at home waiting for me to shuffle them into the great junk collection that is my basement. Took some video, will probably screen shot it and post those.

Nice catch Tom. Looking forwards to seeing how the repairs go.
Hope its not yellowed but IIRC there is a cure for that.

It's pretty minty, and supposedly works or at least did till they recently switched to a flat panel...I haven't powered it up yet. The 2 big Zenith's are living in storage with the Oldsmobile till I can find room in the house. It came with the owners manual, Zenith service manual, Sam's, and lots of tubes...The previous owner was as committed to keeping it alive as I am.
