Today's local find with manual... :w00t: ..I can't wait to clan it up..a bit dusty and FF button stuck. I've seen it on pics, but it looks bigger in person.

Wow! Congratulations. I finally brought mine back to life last week. I've been enjoying it greatly. I'd love to get a (Kinkos) copy of Your manual if You would be so kind. I'd pay You for time and cost. Post some pics of Yours after a good cleaning. :yes:

Congrats! :yes:

I have two of those. One with the music search LED display and other without it.

While cleaning I tried to pull the top panel sliding switches. Big mistake! At that time I never knew the whole panel with switches can come out for cleaning. I accidentally broke one trying to pull it out, but glued it back. Lesson learned from mistakes! It is a very unique box! I think it got the longest tape belt! It is fun to see how it is run.

Ouch, yeah, that's a lesson learned alright. I worked on a pair of these for member Fresh Produce. They have a logic deck that is complicated, but the sound is SOOOOO strong, it's worth bringing back from the dead

The deck door looks absolutely tiny!

How big is this, how much does it weigh and how high is the handle from the ground?

The more the deck door looks tiny the big is the size of the box! :lol:

It is a big size box. Pretty heavy too! :yes: :-D

Sound is powerful also. It got some good bass too! :yes:

LOL....well...it was Saturday night and I was drinking a few beers, I was messing with my old Ipod and logged into the Cragislist app. It had "Boombox" saved, so I just pressed search. After scrolling for a few seconds I saw the ad posted 2 months ago. I sent the seller a message at 12:40am(sunday morning)....some how he replied right away. I drove 15 miles from my house to meet him at 1pm.
When I first saw it, I was impressed at how big it this box actually is.
