This looks like walnut, but I'm using my iPhone:

Seller sent more photos per my request. All interior parts lost, motorboard deck cut out. I deleted photos he sent me as they were smeary and worthless.

He might be the one selling this-

If money were not so tight right now I would've bought it already.

So the motor board was just missing or was the whole inside destroyed? As long as the
main body of the cabinet was intact I would still be interested. Finding a walnut
motor board would not be easy, but not impossible either. The rest of the parts are
easy. I would drive up there but he would not send me pictures of the inside, maybe
because its trashed?

It's filthy and needs knobs but hey, the price was right.

Its a real beauty. Its a shame somebody would take out the horn. I guess
back in the day people did not realize the future value of these machines.

If it wasn't on the other side of the country, I would have snatched it up a long time ago.
