Default The low down on vintage machines in carry cases?

I now have several of these and the cases are very worn, torn up, filthy and trying to lift those heavy machines by the handle is terrifying my feet, ankles and toes.
They are not plastic cases but the heavier ones so they are not cleaning up nicely.

Do most people toss them and just put the machine in a cabinet if it is a keeper or ? Can all machines be switched to a cabinet? Then if you ever sell it the cabinet goes with it? Does it hurt the value or help if we keep the original case?

If you do keep them what do you use to clean them with? I was thinking a little Dawn dish soap?
Sorry for so many questions. I tried researching it here but nothing came up about the cases or how to refurbish them, which might be fun and kinda like redoing a vintage chest or trunk.
