Hi Mike,
Bottom side doesn't look too bad but to the top does. I did an old 1949 Admiral Consolette TV a while back that was pretty rusty. I did what you suggested cleaned it up with a wire wheel and then shot it with some grey hammertone paint. It was a lot of work. As Ron said that chassis is a popular one, might be easier to find a replacement.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
