FS: UPDATED it is a Credenza, not Victor VV8-30

Post by maginter »

I screwed up having a different cabinet on my mind when posting this one......

I have a 4 Door Credenza that I picked up as part of a purchase and the cabinet is to far gone, in my opinion, to restore. So I would like to help others benefit for their machines that are missing parts. The S/N for this machine is 18227 for a part reference, knowing there are different configurations. It has a motor board, Motor with Crank, Grill, Hardware(Arm, Lid Dash Pots, etc.) NO REPRODUCER.

If you want everything, let me know. if you want parts, let me know that too. Since, by the rules, I have to put a price on it, I would like $150 for the machine as it stands. Parts will be less obviously. I will give it a few days to allow anyone thinking of getting the entire machine a chance before parting it out.

I am not looking to get rich, just get reasonable money for my time and have the parts go where they are needed. I will take reasonable offers. Shipping cost are on the buyer.



TIA,

Really hoping someone will be interested in keeping it intact. I think the cabinet would clean up very nicely. How is the finish on the lid surface?

This looks too nice to part out. I hope someone snaps it up,gives it a good cleaning, and enjoys it. I remember when a crank, 4 door 8-30 would bring close to $1000 at the Union show.

Free standing tone arm, low profile molding around the base, and a center turntable, it looks more like a VV-CREDENZA. SN 18000 was about the switch over point. Curious what the ID tag says.

It does look too nice for parts. It’s too far for me and I already have 3 Credenzas in the house, but I hope it gets a good home.

I was hoping that someone would take it to restore, but there is a lot of work her. The top is pretty rutted up. The seller coated it with Minwax stain, so the finish looks better that it is.

Great machine! Worth restoring, but my wife says "No More Big Machines!" If mama ain't happy, then nobody's happy!
