This would not be so bad if it had a bit of water damage, as it is probably solid wood in much of the cabinet. even if water damaged, what is it that could not be cleaned up. As the member from San Diego said, wrong coast for me, but hope someone rescues it.
Did you steal my Zenith combo! That sounds like the same one as mine to a tee, even down to no cataract. Mine has the power tuning and 25MC33 *BULLETPROOF chassis. Is your parents set an Italian provincial cabinet?

*I say bulletproof because it is all original, only repaired, not restored (yet) and still works great!
