The missing bottom cover is just one of the usual CT-100 annoyances, like the cracked UHF-VHF splitter board. I suppose you could make one, and I saved two of them from a CT-100 and a 21CT55 that burned in the '88 fire. I have those someplace still, unless I let someone in need have them in the past.

I probably will drop out of the bidding, and here I say in public, I'm not going to run it into orbit. My CT-100 is nice & complete, but has a failed CRT and water damage to the 'feet' on the cabinet. It's not worth $1000+ to me to have a set that's a little better, but still with a failed tube.
