Repro Scott radio chassis are a new one on me, although I wouldn't be surprised, given the ever-increasing value of Scotts. Charles, do you have pointer to an example?

It was the late Roy Burnett who started the project back in the late 80s, when he and two other Scott guys wanted to replicate the Scott Quaranta (spelling???) 53-tube, 3-cabinet console. When Roy passed away about 10 years ago, the other two guys bought out the parts and continued to work on making the chasses. I've gotten scolded by a couple of members here whose stuff I blabbed about, so I can't put names... But if you're interested, I can pass your name on to those guys. Both are here in Southern Cal.
