Those look crusty enough in the picture, that I kind of question their value.

Nothing elbow grease and 0000 steel wool won't fix...

A single NOS genuine altec 33710 will run ya a hundred bucks on ebay.

I don't think those on ebay are genuine Altec, but if the price doesn't go much higher i think they'll be a bargain.

I love my blast cabinet.

Normally, I'd agree, but being aluminum with as much white corrosion as I see, I wonder if they wouldn't be severaly pitted when cleaned up. Aluminum can even get brittle when enough corrosion has happened, as I learned on an old Polaris snowmobile engine that kept breaking as I was trying to disassemble it, years ago.
