You might find the old countertop plywood a bit "weak"....

When I redid the 345 counter top I retained the original plywood counter top, reinforced it from the underneath with 2 X 4's, 2 X 2's, and plywood, and put the new "top covering" over the old wood.....came out with about the same weight as compared to cutting a totally new one from scratch, and I think I saved a bunch of time by not having to trim and fit a new underlayment for the countertop.
