I never built one from a kit but what I have been told MANY times is that
the front panel and PS were customer assembled and the front panel was an
absolute BITCH to build! Seems there was a mess of wires running from all
those front panel swiches to the motherboard and it was hell to get them
all connected correctly and to work in among all of them.

Maybe the kit was never finished because of that ?
The original owner lost interest, after he stated
wit the front panel :)
