I hear you. I like those a lot, but the analog ones are cool, too. If you find one, I’d be interested in seeing yours if it has a tape deck. Maybe even if it doesn’t for the right price.

If you can be patient, one will eventually turn up. Just today I got one in working condition, for way less than $300 that stealbayers want.

I've got one that had some issues with heat. It could probably use a rebuild. I think the knobs were dirty inside too. I've got it in a box in the attic. I won't let it go for free, but make me an offer and I'll probably let it go. It has the tape deck, and looks exactly like the one in the OPs picture.

If you are looking for one of these cheap and don't mind working with the electronics to get it going, send me a PM.

Heat? Like it won’t come on when it’s not? I don’t want to step on anyone’s toes, but if he doesn’t bite, I’m 110% interested.

It seemed to stop working when it started getting hot, like a heat sink was not hooked up right or a component was missing some solder or something. The radio still worked, but not entirely well. I don't want to sugar coat it. This thing will need some work, without a doubt. I debated sending it out to be professionally repaired but decided to get a CD head unit instead lol. Back when I did some research on the issues (it was a while ago) it did seem like it was repairable.

If anybody wants this thing, just let me know.

I’m pulling mine out right now thought I would post a pic. I have the two knobs also, the plastic on the display isn’t in the best shape.
