Nice looking unit! If you can talk him down a bit I'd say go for it! I enjoyed restoring my D-10 phonograph. It was easier than I thought it would be. The biggest drawback with them is the tiny 6" platter and the fact that they only play 78's. You'll need a new idler, cartridge and possibly a platter reflocking. I installed a Pfansteihl P51-3 cartridge in mine. No modifications were needed and it works great! I have pdf's of the service literature I can send you and may be able to help with a spare part or two. OTOH, It is possible to install a newer changer but it will probably be smaller than the D-10 so it may really look out of place.
