Got a lead on an early DuMont TV locally

[vortalexfan]

Hello everyone, I was looking through facebook marketplace a week ago or so and I saw someone locally had an early DuMont TV for sale that I thought about getting but I wasn't sure about the price they were asking (they were asking over $100 for the set and I wasn't sure if they were going to budge from the price) so I didn't pop on it, well a week later and I saw the same tv posted on an antique TV group on facebook that someone was posting about the TV on there to see if there was any interest on there even if it was to just make it into a fish tank, and I had commented on the thread mentioning that I was local to the TV (and the relative that the person was posting the TV on behalf of) and that I was interested in the TV but I wasn't willing to pay anymore than $50 for the set because it was going to likely need more than that just to fix it up, and the guy sent me a PM telling me that his relative was willing to go down to $100, but he said that if it didn't sell for $100 after a week he would take my $50 offer. I told him that I thought that the $100 would work and that I would come pick it up either Friday or Saturday. It is a console DuMont.

What would be the best way to transport this TV? Take the Chassis out of the cabinet and load that into the car separately from the cabinet and then load the cabinet in separately? I'm asking because I would be moving this TV myself and I know quite a few of you guys on here have experience moving old console TVs by yourselves.

Thanks for your help.
