I would prefer to restore the chassis which was original to the cabinet. But if it is in very rough shape, I would consider restoring one of the 87 chassis. Those Neutrodyne-Plus models are actually pretty decent radios, considering how primitive they were compared to the later Screen Grid Plus 95/96 and the Superheterodyne-Plus 111/112.

I have yet to restore a 65 so can't comment on its performance.
