So I had this old steel case from the early 90s thinking that it would be the perfect candidate to get into case modding. However I remember it being larger than this.

MODLE NO.: BG15-VI15G (don't bother googling, this is pre-internet (technically inaccurate) so it does not exist)

cool, there is a lot of job to do. I was modding an old case but the steel was twice as thick as the one used today so i stopped it, too much problems for little good.

yea thats hwo I feel about this case. The steel is really thick and it would take so much modification just to get this one to work so idk if it is worth it :(

if you can just buy a cheap rosewill case for about $20. The metal is nice and thin to learn on!

Bah, who cares about how much work it is. Just make it look cool!

BTW, I have a case that looks similar to that. It even has a turbo button!
