    It would seem a pretty large undertaking...mostly all that would remain from the old PRT would be the table and even that isn't the same anymore.

    right the new table has aluminum rails so it looks like all that would be left are the motors and electronics. I would like the new gantry myself but it looks like you would about need a new machine.
