1949 Admiral TV.wmv 

Thank you sir. That was a pleasure. Makes me all nostalgic for sure.

What a beauty. First rate restoration job. I love the way you reconstructed the back panel with the coaxial input. I bet it weighs about a third of the original weight.

I began my career at Admiral and many of those old set were still in use then.

Wow! Nice job! I have a 1951 Zenith TV . I like the way you place things inside the tv cabinet. Clean job!

This is a fantastic way to make use of these beautiful old chasis if you cannot find working electronics.

Nice restoration. Thanks for sharing.

This is great!!! What a great idea and job!!!

Nice restoration :-)

There is nothing about the vintage TV that could burn your house down, the worse that could happen is a component would fail and you wouldn't have a picture when you woke up.

wonderful BRAVO!!!

Totally cool! I want one!

I've had several people ask about building a set for them and I just do not have the time. I have so many irons in the fire right now my family is begging me to drop a few of my hobbies. This set is not currently for sale but if I decide to let it go in the future I will certainly let you know. Thanks for looking at my RU-vid video and thanks for your interest in my old TV. Mike

That's a nice job I like that

keep me in mind if you sell this one or if you hear of any old sets for sale. thanks

How did u do that I have a 1960s one and want to hook up a VCR to it but don't know how

Is there a way i could convince you to do this for me? I have three sets from 1950 that all work with their original equipment but i fear me falling asleep watching one and having something go wrong and burn my house down. I want to buy just a body or a full tv with a worthless chassis to do this to so i can have the old look with out worrying if i dozer off. Thanks

I would like to know if you would convert a set for me. I've been looking for one for a few months but haven't found one yet. Your set is beautiful and your crafsmanship is A-1. I wondered if there are any restrictions on the types of fifties tv sets that can be converted. Finally, is the set you have in the video for sale? Thanks for your time.

Are you asking me if I would be interested in converting a set for you?

Whats a career?

Awesome job, Captain! Wonderful job! PLEASE make sure you ONLY play 1950s material on that TV set! I HATE, HATE, HATE it when a 1950s vintage TV set is used to play 21st century "jive turkey" crapola. (That oughta be outlawed) LOL!!!
