Looks like a long Omnibus chassis, so -8/e or -8/f. Yes. An 8/e/f/m bezel and panel should fit. It shouldn't be horribly hard to find a bare Omnibus backplane block. The original PSU might be a bit tougher, but except for classic purity, there's nothing wrong with coming up with a modern PSU for it. Not sure why there's a 10A fuse for -15V. I totally believe the 1.5A for +15V, but I don't know what peripherals draw that much current at -15V, unless it's part of the core memory requirements. M-series logic is mostly TTL and mostly +5V. If you were going to fit a modernish unit in there, like some flavor of 6120 board, you'd probably have to roll your own front panel. The Spare Time Gizmos products are all 2:3 scale. -ethan
