Restoring ATC-200MX

So I was replacing a customer's PC one day a while back and discovered his old one was in a dirty, beat up old CoolerMaster case. Turns out, it was an ATC-200MX. I asked him if I could have it and he said, "Well hell yes! I was going to pay you to take it away!"

I've decided to restore it, starting with cleaning it and painting the scratched up, hideous gray stuff black. Next up is to find a solution for the missing drive bay covers and rewire and sleeve all the headers and fans. Open to suggestions!

Agreed with Wiregeek

That 2x 3.5" bay is begging for a good LCD, or 3x5.25" bays....... search around!
 
budget didn't quite call for an LCD but a rheobus was definitely in order - can't do old school without one. i bought a silver sunbeam and painted the face plate because wanted a black face and silver knobs. i salvaged drive bay covers and the front panel usb/audio from a newer cooler master case. i ended up moving my main rig into this case because i needed the antec 300 i was using for a customer's build.
