Default Ultra V1763 TV in Milton Keynes

Hi all,
There's a rather nice Ultra V1763 in GDads Collectables for £35. Their premises are at the wharf on Old Wolverton Road, Old Wolverton. (down the lane at the side of the Galleon pub). Can't see too much of it as it's on a shelf surrounded by stuff but the cabinet still has its high gloss finish.
I don't have any connection with GDads but I do have their permission to post this here.
P.S. take a walk along the canal towpath up to the iron trunk aqueduct while you're there.
Cheers,
Mark.

Been wanting an excuse to go in there. Keep walking past on the other side of the canal with the dog..

Saturday morning ferret I think.

would this tv be able to be connected to a dvd player with aurora standards converter to show black and white animation?

Hi Victoria
I wouldn't be tempted by that - a good buy for us, but we'd be interested in restoring it. It would be like buying a car that's been sitting in a garage unused for twenty years - it wouldn't work!
Best to see if someone on the forum can loan you a renovated set and a converter as suggested in your other thread and you could be confident of it working - the last thing you'd want is for it to fail during your exhibition!
Hope you find something
Glyn
