I am willing to bet that it is someone's personal design. A little far out, but artistic in it's own right. For that reason I would say that it would be worth keeping.
Personally I would not consider creating somthing like this unless it was a way-far gone cabinet. And even then, the challenge of bringing a "rough" cabinet back to it's original appearance appeals to me.
However, you will find many what we call "franken radios" in many of our collections. They range from radios that can be directly linked to the factory to personal modifications. The personal mods are where it gets interesting. Often functional or even practical. And in some cases a little bizarre.
