I adjusted the guns the best I can and the colors on the bottom of the screen are correct but fades into too much blue as you go to the top

Did it get bounced or jarred while being transported? If so, you may have shadow mask damage or it may be a degausing issue that turning it on and off several times will take care of or if you can get your hands on a degausing coil. Just a couple of possibilities, hard to say for sure

Try to get a solid color screen of white and see if it's pure white... You may just need to degauss the monitor as when you move them they could've gotten magnetized a bit.

No access to a regular coil but made one with a rare earth magnet spinning in a cordless,,,,, pretty crude but did the trick.

Thanks guys

Looks like a ripple in the vertical circuit. Locate the vertical output and backtrack through the circuit to check the caps therein. Unless someone recognizes that chassis and has a more exact location of course...
