The machine appears to be complete and in reasonably good condition at least in the published photographs.
I've noticed that a couple of the playing-area pieces are missing: The reproducer holder (should be in the front left corner) and the tonearm tiedown stanchion, located on the back right.
Oddly, there's an extra turntable!
