I can't truly answer that question. Too many variables. But I can show you what my idea of a complete chassis restoration is. My cabinet resto pic haven't been added yet but I'll get to it in time. They're all ready to be posted but I just haven't had the time to do it. This particular resto was done on a Zenith chassis.
