IMHO a professional rebuild would likely cost what a decent used example of one would cost anyway. Time and materials...
Removing and replacing the lock alone requires some disassembly tricks. These cases were not designed to be taken apart.
I will be curious what McDermott says. It would not surprise me if they turned away the work.
If the Fellini style lock is damaged, there are some available, but they aren't cheap. I have one left, but it isn't for sale.
It could be recovered without a lock kind of like a Ron Thomas case if it has a good vacuum seal. Some of the McD cases were made that way, in fact I can't see the other side on this one and am only assuming it has a lock.
Refinishing the wood ends will often remove any logo there as they were often very shallow.
If the lining is good it makes a great storage case even without restoring it.
If McDermott can't or won't do it contact JB. Although he may not take the work on he may have some good advice. In fact I would contact him anyway.
I could do it, but no way do I have the time. I am in the middle of rebuilding a similar one (not a McD) for myself and haven't gotten to touch it for months.
If you end up wanting to sell it for parts feel free to contact me, I may be interested if it is cheap enough, maybe you could get your money back out of it.
