WANTED: VV-X/VV-90 Motor with crank in working shape

Post by RCA_victrolaboy »

Greetings to all of the Yankee Trader aspect of the Talking Machine Forum. :D

I am currently on the search for a functional VV-X motor for a restoration I am doing on a VV-90 cabinet (as posted on the machines page.) It doesn't have to be rebuilt, just able to spin at the proper speed and run without much maintenance (I'm planning on getting the springs cleaned professionally and relubricating the entire mechanism.) I'm not entirely sure if the VV-X motor is to fit in a VV-90 however if so I would put the VV-X motor onto the VV-90 motorboard that I have with my empty cabinet. I would be willing to pay, of course, for the motor & shipping. On a side note, I'm also looking for the horn and baffles if you happen to have a machine that has been parted out - also willing to pay and pay for shipping as well.

Thanks for any information you all can provide and thank you for looking - much appreciated.

I have a motor from a VV-240. It is a 2 spring - I'll post further information here this evening. It should be correct for your machine.
