This appears to be a cabinet that was offered with the Fender 75 amp, which was offered as a combo or a head with a separate cab from 1980 to 1982.

Some say this was a Rivera designed amp, others say Ed Jahns.

As to the speakers being original, can't say, pictures of the numbers on the back of the speakers inside the cabinet may be more conclusive, but I doubt they are original.

I'll defer to Arjay, there is no better expert on Fender history here.

I think you're on to something, Vinyl. As for the drivers being OEM, most speakers used by Fender will have a blue-and-silver mylar decal affixed to the magnet structure and a Fender P/N ink-stamped on the rim of the frame. The speakers are front-loaded so it should be easy enough to pull one and inspect it for these clues.
