I have a 21" SC in a chinese painted cabinet that would work better, and, changes could be made to that.
It's certainly deep enough.
I didn't know the ads were meant only for FCC until I saw it after post.
250 Is a bit rich, plus shipping, as you certainly didn't pay that much. I didn't know it was on ebay, or, I just may have tried to save it.
I really like that set, and, wish I could find such a nice one.
I'm not knocking your prototype. INdeed, I'm fully supportive of you getting it going again.
But, first, what is the real problem with saving the case it's in?
If worse comes to worse, I have a 1951 RCA 17" mtetal tube with full doors , and, a nice curved front that I'm not in love with. Wanna trade?

Please don't get so upset. I was just trying to ask if there was something better you could use.
I love color, and, admire that prototype alot, but, I also like BW. I know of relative rarity of the one you might use, and, wish I had it. I love the style, and, obviously, the condition isn't half bad, either.

By the way, the cabinet you have that it came in isn't a TC-168. It's a 6T64 using the cheap KCS 47 chassis.
