depends on the extrodinary efforts put into shipping it, if the buyer were willing to pay, and the seller were willing to commit, i would have 3 seperate shipments. 1 for cabinet, 1 for chassis, 1 for tube.

I have a simular one , it looks more like the cabinet without insides in the picture from the previous thread that was put up, mine too is sort of frankenrolla because the insides fit ( i think ) but are from a different cabinet ( maybe console ? ) the original chassis had serious troubles sending any video or audio at all , it was put on in the garage for a future restoration , one day i noticed the crt neck broken and all i got was i didn't do it , i know nothing about it , so it became a parts doner when a chassis only showed up in my travels , i'm pretty sure it fits because it was slid into the cabinet that got mysterious scratches on the top from a simular i don't know anything.
