Starting a Zenith 16h23

I picked up this very beat up Zenith 16h23 chassis set years ago. I didn't know much about TVs back then not that I'm an expert now, but I figured for 25 bucks I'd give it a shot. The photo finish cabinet has no photo finish left on it and some water damage. But after replacing half the tubes in it the set actually works pretty well it doesn't even Buzz. Here's the first half decent picture I've gotten on it. This is all original capacitors and resistors. It has a lot of Separation in the top of the vertical , and doesn't have full deflection to the bottom , also the horizontal hold never really locks in right , you end up with like a wave in the screen . I'm going to run through this one section by section again but I'll put up more pictures. Then I think I'm going to vinyl wrap the cabinet in wood grain, and use some toner on the plain wood on the front.
