That is basically the same indented horn on my tabletop VV-XI, it has the place for the motor to sit into, with the exception of the throat where the tone arm goes on.

I am under the impression that Victor was all over the map in the early years. Seems like they must have been doing a lot of transitioning of parts from various machines. What may have been "typical" for a model may have had a slight modification etc.

The bottom motor is mine, it is what is in my VV-XI tabletop...it appears to be the same as yours, the photo on the top is supposedly what is normally found in a VV-XI tabletop models, it seems the only difference is the double cut vs. quad cut gears.

I think this is the same motor that sold for $151.00 on ebay. I never realized there would be so many bids...12 bids.

Yes, the same motor!
Say me, what is the dimension of the main shaft of the crank you use with this motor? I ordered a 7 ¼ crank and I hope it will be the right one...
