Default Re: Ferrograph 4A: Restoration advice needed

Looks like the first order of the day for me is to clean up this gooey mess.
Then where do I find new rubber idlers?
I thought whether I should instead try to adopt a belt? The rotation will be correct and it will probably improve speed stability. I will not be able change speeds but I do not really need 3-3/4” as my intention for this deck is to play prerecorded tapes, which are mostly 7-1/2 ips.
