Victor V Disc Phonograph

[long_island_phono]

A local collector friend, David Graber, and I purchased a Victor V together and finally after two years of the machine mainly sitting on a shelf, we put it back together and are offering for sale at auction on my site at the link below.

I would like to thank the two members of the board who helped with motor parts for the Victor. When we bought the machine it had a new finish with a hole cut in the motorboard and a 1950's electric drive motor bolted in place. Luckily whoever did the first "restoration" job kept the crank and crank stanchion as the crank was rigged up as an on/off switch.

David and I found a piece of oak that best approximated the grain and coloring and I tried my darndest to stain and blend the grain to match. The bullet brake was another challenge however we were fortunate to have the bullet section, which would have been impossible for me to machine given my resources at hand.
