Kind of makes me wish I hadn't assembled some of the Heathkits that I
bought a long time ago...

Maybe if I carefully just took them apart???  Probably not...

Don,
         This is exactly what I do!  I have bought several DX-20 
rigs, disassembled them, polished and buffed the chases, gotten new 
caps and resistors and carefully followed the instructions to 
re-build the rig.  Of course new wire was also used and in the end, a 
"new" DX-20 appeared and if the case needs repainting I do that 
too...great fun.  To date, 2 DX-20 transmitters and one DX-40 have 
arisen as "newer".  If you like to build and don't mind the 
de-soldering it's great fun and easy to do while being very fulfilling.
