Hello Vlad. In general, in my opinion, restoring a wooden case, even in such a bad condition, is much more pleasant than restoring a chassis that is too dirty and rusty. Icon_wink Washing the chassis and cleaning it of rust is the most unpleasant procedure for me, so never expect a perfectly clean chassis from me. Icon_mrgreen But repairing the receiver case is a real pleasure. In my opinion, there will not be too many problems with your cabinet in terms of reproduction. First, you need to glue it and remove the old layer of varnish, and then it will become clear what materials are best to restore it with.
