what this guy did certainly is marketable, and certainly looks lucrative. money talks....you know what else walks....
my post is not to be construed that *I* would go that route, but other routes I do go. Next project is a 100yr old trunk converted into a trunk with a stereo radio inside (got the idea off tv....the one on tv sold for over $300 for a $50 investment. I happen to have a couple trunks in stock, a couple stereo radios with bad cases, and a few hours free time eventually. that knock at the door? opportunity)

Perhaps, but the fact of the matter is that this is simply the wrong audience to gain much agreement or acceptance for those kinds of "upgrades".
And also the reason why a TV with a good picture tube generally sells for less than half of what a picture tube alone sells for.....nobody wants to be the one to "kill" it.
