Because it's not often that you see things _in their original context_. There are plenty of radios around, but they are most always in isolation. IMO, complete, in context, setups with original cables, etc., are well worth a look and are worthy of preservation.
YMMV,

I have only gotten as far as mounting this on casters(with original mounting holes), confirming that all but one of the cartridge resistors are good, spinning the motor-generator by hand to see that it is free, and observing that the antenna loading coil and its switch are broken.
