Idler tires shouldn't be too big of a problem. However, there WERE power supply capacitors that were going bad even 20 years ago so I would factor in replacing many/most/all in the secondary of the power supply when you get it.

Other than that and a few belts (and loose RF input jacks?) they were pretty solid and reliable machines.
Ok, that's good to hear, the reason why I mentioned the idler tires was because I've worked on/owned a few Panasonic Linear Stereo VCRs from the same time period that did have idler tire issues (the VCRs played, rewound and fast forwarded, but when they played they had a tendency to eat tapes and when they rewind they would stall half-way through a 2+ hour tape, and fast forward was virtually non-existent speed wise.
