Hi Gary
The chassis alone is worth $30 easy...go for it!
I once had to restore a Model 84 cathedral that had been painted white. I know a local collector who is good a refinishing cabinets, so I let him deal with the white paint while I fixed the electronics. In this case, the white paint had been applied over the original finish, making it easier to strip off. Hopefully your 118 will be easy to strip, also.
