I saw that, the posting was rather amusing to say the least, I thought it may have been a Philco 96. The cabinet is likely salvageable, though it would need to be completely dismantled and parts like the plywood side panels replaced. My 96's cabinet was almost that bad before I set to work on it, the side panels fit into slots and can be removed once the top is taken off. That being said it is a lowboy and a fairly common cabinet style, so there are others out there, but that doesn't mean you should completely junk the cabinet, the legs with corner posts and the turned grill bars should be saved as donors for another cabinet.
Regards
Arran
