I recently acquired a beautiful 1907 VTLA that is missing a few parts. Two of these parts are as follows:
1. I have the gold plated tone arm (see pic), but am missing the goose neck attachment and screw cap. I would like one with nice gold plating.
2. I would like to get an original knurled thumb screw that holds the tone arm bracket in place (see pic). The screw size/thread measures as #10-32.
Does anyone have these parts for sale?
Thanks,
John

Re: Wanted: Parts for Victrola VTLA
Thanks very much. The cabinet has been restored and they did a great job…. Very close to original. The motor looks good but unrestored.. looks like someone replaced one of the governor weights, but otherwise it’s all original.. right down to the grease in the springs. Missing a few parts but I still think $500 wasn’t bad. I’ll be tearing into it soon. Fortunately, I’ve restore 2 other Victor 6 motors so I’m well equipped.

Re: Wanted: Parts for Victrola VTLA
I have the tonearm piece. It came from a Victrola XII, but it does fit a VTLA arm. I tried it on mine to be sure. $40.00 plus shipping, I'm thinking $5 to $6 to ship, personal check is fine. The gold is brighter and shinier than the pictures show,
