Building an amp head cabinet - help/advice needed.

Due to the weight of my Ampeg B500 combo being a bit awkward to lift on my own (95lbs!) I've been thinking about separating the the amp from the cab to split the weight up a bit.
The amp itself has the same dimensions as the SVT450H (so won't fit a standard 19" rack) and I'd really like to keep the classic Ampeg styling so looked online for replacement SVT head boxes but only found Fliptops that do them and at $299 plus postage and import duties from the states it's more than I wanted to spend.
Our sound guy is actually a chippy so could probably help if I go down the route of building one myself (I'm practical enough but have no tools) but before I commit to a project (I'm also inherently lazy by nature) is there anyone on here or can anyone recommend someone that could build me an SVT head box at a reasonable price?

Alternatively, if anyone has an old SVT-450H / 350H or 200T that has blown up beyond repair and they'd like to offload it cheaply, feel free to PM me 😜!
