If the plastics and glass are good, cabinet trim intact, I'd go for it. i like the 1700 style, and the vertical record mech makes you want to look for colored vinyl.
No, it's not my juke, but many people aren't familiar with Wurlitzers, let alone the 1700

What would you pay for a non working complete one . The veneer needs redone . The glass and plastic are fine

Non working because it may need tubes and recapping or non working since oh.. the amp is gone? I'd try to keep it in the 600-700 range, a comparable Seeburg would get more, but as you know collectors seem to prefer the Seeburgs. I love veneer work on a Wurlitzer, straight lines, flat surfaces, makes it an afternoon job as opposed to sweating over the curves of a Seeburg C or G. http://oakwoodveneer.com/ is my go to place for the veneer. A bigger selection than the Lowe's or Home depot will have.

Do you know if it's a 1700 or a 1700HF...? My first box was a very nice 1700HF (high fidelity) and wish I had not sold it as it sounded very nice and played flawlessly for years. I even went as far to get a stepper and wallbox... Just make sure it's not missing any components, and as kilroy states, keep the price below $800 since the cabinet needs to be re-veneered...

I am a Seeburg guy but I love the lines on the 1700. My quest to find one will start today.

It's is complete nothing missing Without a few photos, it's difficult to pin down a value... I'm a little bias towards the 1700 as I had one so, I might go a little higher if everything is there and in decent shape... Not something that came from So. America; these boxes may be complete but are in terrible condition!

Zadd, I also have a machine that I bought a couple years back and have not done anything with it. Its a Wurlitzer 1400. Has been painted over the veneer so that would need to be redone and it plays 78s. I can send some pics if you have any interest. I also know a guy selling a Wurly 780. Not everyones cup of tea, but a pretty rare machine. I can get some info and pricing if anyone is interested. He is getting out of jukes, sorry John but he had THREE 1100s and sold them all to the same person.

Thanks for the offers but I'm not looking for a 78rpm juke unless it's a Rockola 1428

My 1428 also plays 48s but I've had it for 20 years. Wouldn't sell it for anything, well maybe if a 1015 popped up. Good luck in your hunt for a 1700.
