Well, it could be an advebture. But the clamsheel cabinet is complex, will likely require tools made specifically for it (which is what Steve did for Philco 20) and could be a long multy-hour project. Restoring one probably is simpler.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
