Re: Aiwa deck
These decks must be getting on for 35 to 40 yrs old and so condition will be everything, much more so in fact than where it might have figured back in the day against the competition.
Belts, clutches, in fact all the friction surface will likely be in poor shape. Lubricants will have hardened and dried out... so be realistic as to what you may be taking on. As long as you can get replacement parts (particularly pinch rollers, belts and any rubber tyres it may use) then you are in with a chance. Projects like this can be very satisfying as long as you are prepared to put the work in.
