1909 Victor Talking Machine Victrola

[vortalexfan]

Hello everyone, a couple of weeks ago an elderly lady that I go to church with gave me a 1909 Victor Talking Machine Crank-up Victrola that the mechanism and "tone arm" assembly were transplanted into a home made tabletop cabinet and the mechanism still works as it should but needs some work on the brake assembly and the speed adjustment assembly as they are really badly coroded because this unit sat in an outdoor storage shed for over 30+ years, and the motorboard needs to be replaced because the veneer is shot on it.

I would like to try to restore this home made cabinet and repair/replace the motorboard and get this up and running again, because I have many 78 RPM records that I would love to use on this unit.

I would love to know what I need to do to properly restore this unit, as this is the first time I've ever worked on one of these before.
