Tom,

Different cabinet tops and cabinet #'s were common. As on the assembly line the tops & cabinets weren't always in sync. Also, sets that didn't pass the final inspection were pulled from the line and repaired. This also separated tops from cabinets and what ever top was handy was used prior to final packing and shipping. This also occurred on the CT-100 line durning its assembly.
