I found this Aiwa CS-660H today while looking around at a local place that specializes in liquidation and salvage sales. I was looking around with my wife and I happen to look over at a pile of various industrial stuff and thought to myself "WOW! That looks like a Aiwa 660! I picked it up and it was.
I took it up to the counter and the clerk says "How does $14.00 sound"? Of course I said "Yes".
I brought it home and gave it a once over and it works! The cassette belts are junk of course,but I can hear the motor running,so thats good! It needs some love and as you can see the plate on the cassette door is missing. But other than that it is complete and the antenna is in excellent condition. So if anyone has a scraper CS-660 with a good cassette door they want to sell,please let me know. Not a bad catch for just being in the right place at the right time! I've never thought to look for boomers at this place and I shop there all the time,LOL!
Here are a few pictures .

Oh that feeling... that instant adrenaline rush when you see stereo speakers and a handle!

Nothing like finding one in the wild.

OK, now who has a spare cassette door?
