That looks like it would be fun to play when restored, but looks like it needs a good deal of work. That back glass looks a bit tired! I'm sure you have all the time, money, and space in the world to give that little machine the love it needs, right??

RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!
Really, this would be a project of major proportions.
Wait til a better one comes along.
Backglass is irreplacable, and unless you know what you are doing,
repair would be a nightmare.
This looks like a major money pit to whoever buys.
One could be found for $300-1,000+ US and it wouldn't need repair.
Sorry to burst your bubble.

Don't worry Terry...
I won't be going near it... It is as rare as rocking horse poo here but even so... Mrs B would hit the roof. I've pushed my luck recently... Don't fancy sleeping in the garage along with the machine for the next month..
