Preparing for the 50th anniversary of color

You know, I was thinking yesterday about my pair o'CT100s and it occurred to me that I most likely now have enough between the two to get one working, with the exception of the picture tube

Now I know that Steve McVoy has been working on a rebuild of one of the tubes, but in all honesty realizing that rebuilds may be nothing more than a one-off, what are the chances that my set(s) might be made functional again? I remember a couple years back hearing a rumor that Disney owned a couple of these sets and wanted to get them functional, and was going to foot some large bill for research into getting the tubes redone.

My cabinet should be back from the restorer this coming month, but I would seriously doubt I'll have it in running shape for January 1.
