Here's another beauty. Though the turntable has been replaced, all of the original dirt was saved and re-used for the re-finishing. and such a bargain!

When I clicked the youtube link I was sitting on the edge of my chair waiting to see a 33 on the turntable played with an old blunt needle. :( It sounded very nice surprisingly! We all wanted to see it though

Whodda thunk it! I guess I missed my calling putting cheap TT's in old Sonora cabinets for 1200 buckaroos. The least he could have done is throw some cheap amp and a "full range" speaker from his car in it. Maybe even a nice "kicker" for some of that "realistic" bass!
