The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I have listed a few parts from a VV 4-40 and a back bracket base (without screw or support arm) from a VTLA. Listed separately are a pull knob, turntable, lid hinge supports with springs, motor board mounting screws, model/name plate from 4-40, and needle cup.

See the listing here: http://www.ebay.com/sch/matt8432/m.html ... 4340.l2562

I have now listed a motor board and 2 spring motor from the early version of the VV Consolette. I have cleaned the motor and board before listing it. If interested here is the link:

Thanks.

Thanks for posting here, I'm going to buy your motor board and I hadn't seen it on ebay. Just got a consolette but is needs an overhaul and I'd rather not have to clean the motor that came with it.

Why? It's just a simple two-spring motor. Probably the easiest thing in the world to rebuild. Watch these videos, and you'll be able to do it in no time.

Seriously, save yourself some money. Can you believe some people pay $185+ to have somebody else do this for them? The Victor four-spring motor is just as easy to rebuild.
