It's probably okay, but for the best part of $200 I'd prefer to know it's not a gutted cabinet. That power cord looked a little iffy........

It's also "gold" (pee yellow) colored, lots of cigarette tar.
Yes, indeed; I have seen that before on a 148GTL made in the Philippines. The owner past away and the family stored all his radio stuff and decided to sell everything 7 years later; well you could still smell the cigarette smoke. Just like Andy said "about every shade you can imagine".
