Good catch, Richard. Those photos never loaded on my end. It's clearly been
modified over its lifespan. Looks like most of it can be reversed. Even the
hole in the front panel can be filled and painted(mine needs the same from
an added phone jack). But it clearly has little collector value in its
current state.

On the plus side, he has a near-matching supply with it that has only the 3
wire cord mod (a good idea) as well as an added toggle switch.

If you factor in the time & skill needed to restore it, $300-$400 would be
more rational IMO.
