Hi,
i am from Austria, near Vienna/Europa. Nearly one year ago I got interest in vintage and then I found Kustom.
The only one I got in Europa - and I look every day in eBay, where 2 4x12 cabinets in very bad condition. I have repaired them and give in Monacor SP305i Speakers, because there were none.
I have imported a Kustom 200 and a Mixer III from the USA.
So I have my first Kustom gear and much people find it great. If you want you can take a look at http://www.austropop.at/Vintage-Thunderbird.htm
The T-Bird is not mine.
Now I've been asked for next January to use that gear as PA for 500 people. I think, that dosent work really fine...
I need more and there is nearly no chance to get it in Europa and the shipping cost from USA to Austria are horrible. (If theres someone in Europa who want to sell it, please contact me. Or if you know a good shipping.)
So I want to build a "new" PA. It should look like the Frankenstein und should be use as PA.
Please, I need all Informations I can get of dimensions, how it looks at the backside, where I can buy name plate, caster ,ports, jack plate, handles, grille cloth...
What speakers do you think are optimal?
Maybe someone can send me photos of all sides. The Backside is very importend.
Thanks a lot!
Best regards from Greifenstein near Vienna
Ricca

OK , so you want to make just the 2-10 inch horn cabinet, and the 2-15 cabinet, right?
I can not help you with the size of the 2-10 cab as I do not own one,but all of the frank speaker cabinets matched the width of the frank head, which is some 1 inch or so less than the latter k200 heads.
I can post you the width of the cab tomorrow if someone else here does not help you before then.
