I just purchased a Philco Ford radio and record player sold in a nice cabinet. Unfortunately the record player doesn’t work.  I think it’s due to the motor no longer working and would like to get it fixed. 

I would like to know the make model and year and would like to know if you recommended a place where it can be refurbished. 

Please see the attached “unit Identification” sticker

Welcome!
We'll be glad to help. 1st things 1st, your attachment is not showing up. Either you need to upload the image to the Phorum, or upload it to a image sharing service, and include a link in your post linking to the image on the hosting site. Others more experienced can give you exact details.
Blessings,

Welcome to the Phorum!

Ford bought Philco in 1961 so its no older than that.
Cheers,
Bob

Unfortunately the "newer" units like yours have less info availble. Much of the data is for pre- WW2 an the following decade.
Cheers,
Bob

Thanks Bob. All I know so far that it was made after 1966.  I’ll try to get some pictures up to see if that helps.
