Ok so you all know I got that 45 butterfly and rebuilt it. Mike did my chassis and she looks good and plays great.
I recently came into another 45 cabinet only. It is complete and just needs a new finish. The one I restored had nothing salvageable but the top molding from the top, Front was dead except for the veneer but I had a good bottom good grill cloth, and ok sides.
The only issue as I found out now from looking at the new cabinet is that someone cut the bottom front molding of my rebuilt one flat and it should have a 45 degree angle to the floor.
My dilemma is this, do I take my chassis and put it on the new cabinet or leave it in the one I already re-did?
The original one is a half new cabinet so I think something all original would be better and I could sell or trade the rebuilt cabinet.
What do you guys think?
Keep the old rebuilt?
Go with the all original?
