No loss. The 750 is covered in plastic, anyway. A few plies of select spruce, a veneer of hardwood, and a couple solid trim blocks on the front corners and she'll be good as new.
Though I like Pete's rendering better - much more like I'd expect it to look if the seller went as crazy with a Sharpie as he apparently did with the paint:
Keep your eyes open. The poor little 750 now has an advocate. Suffice it to say the unit will not be pink, green, yellow, or psychedelic (unless if plays some Hendrix).
More to come as it progresses. I can't resist a challenge.
