How did you NOT know that was a Defender?? hehe j/k

I'm not sure what the other cab is, although I'm sure you'll get a response from someone else here.  If it were me, I would definitely restore the Defender if possible.  Or at the very least, MAME it with a defender CP and run Defender on it with a simple low-end PC.  I just love those cabs, and it would be awesome to have a real Defender IMHO.

definitely restore the defender

I just peeled off the Gunforce sticker and it took some of the glossy black paint that was under it with aloing too. It revealed some of the original artwork. I hope that a heat gun will allow me to peel away the paint and expose the defender stencil.

As soon as someone can help me identify the other cab, then this thread can be moved to the project section. The CP is original too. has the holes cut into it.

Looks like I have alot of work ahead of me if I want to restore the cab.

  Restoration takes a ton of work.  I'm finished restoring a defender, or at least the cabinet, so taht the original boards could be put in and have it make no difference.  Unfortunately I didn't know about good paint stripping methods and SANDED down the 2-3 coats of paint over the original artowrk off.  Wow, It took somewhere close to 20 hours all told.  It looks great now, but man, I'd recommend against doing the sanding method.  =)
