Default The Project - Breathing new life into an older case

Fall is here and the weather has turned bad. So to give me something to do and because I have been somewhat inspired by the "Frankenstein" threads, I decided to see if I can breath a bit of new life into older but sturdy case. This thing has been sitting in my shop for a few years. I liked the basic design back when I got it and it has gone through several changes in internals over the years.

But like anything else, I finally got to the point where I couldn't stand the color anymore (beige) and with the cooling requirements of newer equipment it eventually got retired. Since it was fairly well built I couldn't just regale it to the scrapheap like so many other cheap cases that have gone through my shop.

So without too much further rambling, I present "The Project"







The top was partially removed at this point, but as you can see it is a bit rough looking and of course the 'beige' is pretty dingy. I hadn't really thought of a color set for it as yet, although black is always an option (can never go wrong with black).

Suggestions are open at this point.
