    This is a really cool piece. I don't much about them. I love anything vintage Panasonic (or Sony). The volume controls are all pretty scratchy. The 8 Track player works great. I keep an 8 track tape on hand for testing. My best guess is the cassette tape player is working in terms of the belt and such. However there's a large AC hum on it and I could barely hear the tape I used to test it with. So that may need some work. The power cord is one I had on hand and not original to the unit - but it works. The battery compartment was impossible to photograph - but it is clean and free of corrosion. However I don't own enough D batteries to test it. I also don't have a set of headphones to test the headphone jack at the moment (thanks fur kids for destroying several pairs...). I don't have a guitar or mics to test those inputs either. There's some surface rust on the speaker grill which I think shows up accurately in the pictures. Some corrosion on the cassette buttons - which is kind of weird as I thought they were plastic.
    All items are sold as pictured.  No local pickup.  I try to ship within 24 hours when possible but will always ship within 2 business days.
    Most of my listings are 'Standard Shipping' which in my case could mean Priority Mail, UPS Ground or FedEx Ground.
    Most items are thrift store/estate sale items so I may not know a lot about them or their history.  But feel free to ask any questions.
    We're often out of town on weekends and responses may be slow particularly March - October as it is camping season in MN and I may or may not have internet.
