Another possible save?

This one is in Hamilton, Ontario. Seems worthwhile for the price.

That's tough, considering the pics are horrible, but two things I noticed, one, the reproducer is not correct and two, it looks like the doors might be missing. I wasn't sure if it had them at all at first, but after checking "The Victor Data Book", I see that it should.

Yes, the reproducer and doors are an issue. However it might be a "learning" machine for someone. I just hate to see any machine go to loss.

Agreed, but not a project I'd want to tackle!

Here's the big problem with this 4-3. The doors, every other thing can be replaced pretty easily, the back bracket I noticed is about to crumble: there's $75, a good correct nickel ortho reproducer will cost you $75-100. Before you even have the doors (which are going to be really hard to find), you've got nearly $250 into a machine that isn't worth much more than $300. I had an absoultely perfect US 4-3 that I had a hard time selling. I finally did get $250 for it, but it took some time.
