1966-1967 Zenith Space Command 600
I have a Zenith Space Command Six Hundred Color TV Set with Italian Styled Wood Cabinet. The Model number is hard to read . It looks like it could say X6549 or K6549. Back of the TV says ZENITH COLOR T.V. SERVICE SAVER HI-FI CHASIS. This particular set is featured in an old Zenith "Promotional Film 55924" about 21 minutes into the video, described as the "Italian-Styled Wood Cabinet". I estimate the TV to be from 1966 or 1967. I have pictures of the TV but I don't know how to upload or link them. If anyone is interested in this TV set please let me know, feel free to reach out to me! I am located in southern New Mexico, this Zenith set is an absolute gem and gorgeous to look at, and the TV set still turns on! If anyone has more information on this TV set or is interested in it, let me know!

X denotes 1967 model year, but production date and parts installed will have date codes from 1966,
typically 35th week was the change over for a new model year. These were the first models to use a 6HS5 for high voltage regulation, a small part called a VDR should be replaced to prevent excessive HV that Zenith was famous for. Back in '79, I lost a CRT in a (more plain) Zenith after not addressing this issue Fortunately I have a full-line poster from 1967, a great model year for Zenith SC600 re mote.JPG 1967 Zenith color matrix.JPG

Wow, that is incredibly insightful, thank you so much! I would love to read that full-line roster in greater detail, some words seem a bit hard to make out. It certainly seems like Zenith made some great models in 1967! Thank you DavGoodlin

If you don't want to start tackling the Adriano and its unique but very serviceable issues, it certainly should be advertised on FB marketplace. I have seen something of this price class go for several hundred dollars, especially if in clean top condition.
Otherwise, I hope you find someone locally to assist with the High voltage measurements which are needed for CRT insurance.
