Gotta admit, not matching is bad. Are you suggesting that the new cabinets are "wrapped" like vinyl/laminate not real wood? If so, that's cheap.
As far as looking like the 70's, well, everything that is old is new again. I could say the same bout my 80s/90's looking oak looking cabinets with cheezy gold hardware in the 03 we have and 06 we had. It's a camper, make it functional, make it look outdoorsy. Not like a custom home from 1988 or 1978!
Maybe some nice knotty alder with a light stain, or a distressed farmhouse looking painted cabinets or how about save 500lbs and get rid of the 1000bf of lumber inside and get lightweight and look more like a Cirrus or those upside down campers that RobertRyan posts up?
