I'm in Moorpark, so not quite next door... But I'd be happy to take a look at it when I get over that way. This week is tough, but I'll eMail you when I figure out what's up for next week. Coincidently, there was another Magnavox B&W combo similar to yours on eBay that just ended no bids... I'm going to eMail the seller and ask what they're going to do with it. It's out in Riverside County. Maybe I'll go rescue it if they threaten to convert it to a new piece of furniture, or anything. I've always liked those, and now they're getting rare enough that it's time to grab one.

Thanks Charles! The smell is great isnt it. Old electronics and machines in general have a great smell to them. I have a 1930s GE Whiz fan (close to 80 years old and i use it every day) that i got from my grandfather and i love the way the motor smells. I picked my console up from an ebay listing that ended without any bids too. i drove down to San Diego and picked it up. Look forward to hearing from you Charles!
