i have a 1982 philco series 500 AM/FM/Cassette turntable console.
the cabinet needs a little work but is in decent shape.
the radio and turntable work great but not the cassette.
the door has a piece broken off where the latch catches it
the latch itself is seized and does not move when eject is pressed
my mom got this console brand new and has recently given it to me
i can no find any parts anywhere for it new or used.
i would like to replace the tape mechanism with the door included
this console is definitely worth the investment to fix it.

if anyone can help e it would be greatly appreciated.
