"Looks nice! I heard(on VK) that Zenith bought CRT's from RCA(relabeled Zenith) early on until they produced their own. That would explain the RCA type cataract. Someone else will confirm or deny this info but I did get that info here. "

Ah-ha! This explains the Hi-Lite labels on the CRT's in some of the Zenith sets I've seen.

"Make sure and recap that amplifier before power up. those germanium transistors are getting hard to find in matched pairs."

Where would germanium transistors be used in a 1965 Zenith amp? I have one that looks identical and it is all tube (tuner and amp) including rectifier tubes. Was not aware of the transistor use in those sets.
