On local marketplace. Seller says he is a reseller and doesn’t know much. Looks like there may be some snapped off panel screws.

I'd defer to someone who knows more than I do, but it looks right to me. I'd check the rest of the date codes on the speakers, but the one I see (lower right in the last picture) is 31 MAY 1978.
The missing screws in the back panel are easy enough to replace assuming that they're not broken off in the wood.

I've heard that a left-handed drill bit is useful for removing snapped screws.

Speakers & wiring harness looks to have been touched some way, I'd want to check the blackbacks still are original & working fine (no recone or noise issue at volume); but otherwise it looks legit & cool to me!

Good catch! I agree, the wiring looks non-standard but easily changed back.

Looks like the cap was glued back on the wrong way on the top R and the harness isn't original afa I can tell. I have two of these and they are legit.

Is it normal for that era not to not have a screw into center brace?

AFAIK, yes. Mine doesn't have a screw into the center brace.

No screws are snapped off that I can tell..Some people just get lazy and had too many beers when they opened it up. After the hangover wears off..screws are long gone.. Don't ask me how I know

Yep! Legit Fawn cab, they can go for a little higher than usual with that color. 1500 is a good price for it. 2K is probably typical retail. Looks like it's in really good shape.
No screw for the middle brace, I don't think that started until the 800 line.

I get it. But from experience I have several cabs laying around with snapped off screws. It happens.

Good luck! I think you'll love it. My '76 is the best sounding cab I have.
