Hi, nice find! I got one several years ago in a trade and I was tickled to get it. It was in "working" condition although it had been recapped by pigtailing orange drops throughout. Really messy job but it did work. CRT is good and I improved some of the linearity problems by going to different caps in certain places in the circuit. I've seen these sets sometimes with darn near perfect linearity.
They aren't difficult to work on. In many respects they are more like a typical radio circuit with a CRT than a conventional television set. Mine is nothing to brag about and the set isn't really something you can sit and watch but it is very cool nonetheless when you see an image on such a crude machine!
