General Television - unknown model
#2

Its a cute little set that's in relatively good shape.  I particularly like the colorful dial.

The chassis is actually completely metal encased.  Here is the underside with the bottom of the case off.

The homemade back was neatly done but lacks some ventilation.

The finish is flaking in a number of areas so there will be some level of cabinet refinish/restoration as well.
