Default GEC BC5639 Cabinet

I would like to get hold of a picture of the bottom of the GEC BC5639 Cabinet.

It is "missing" the bottom cover from the one that I am repairing and I would like to replace it preferably with the original or with something that looks close to it.

Cheers - John

I found one of these and it looks as if the bottom is plain (no holes) here:

If so a plain one from a similar set or the back from a scrapped gram might be used if the real thing cannot be found.

Cheers

Thanks Mike.

I was hoping that it would be plain and no vent holes - it makes things a bit easier!

The set was promised to a small car museum as a worker and I did not like the idea of letting it go with no cover on the bottom!
