One option is to find a set of Allison CD-7 cabinets. The 2XO cans should just fit the top-mount opening for the 8" woofer, though the rim may require some bracing to handle the weight of the cans. (It's old pressboard, not MDF.) The internal volume is just a bit lower than that of the 2XO cabinet, though it's a sealed cabinet.
My understanding is there's no crossover external to the can, so it's just a pair of wires from terminals to the can. The Allison is hollow and unbraced, typical of the era, so adding some internal bracing probably wouldn't hurt.
Besides the later RDL based on the CD-7 design, I'm unaware of another similar size cabinet with a top-mounted woofer opening.
