Well since you have the changer now there isn't really much point, but there are plenty of combo units that either have no changer in them or have a more modern one installed rather badly from the 1960s or 70s. There is one on one of the regional Craigslist sites that would have room, the compartment is much larger, it's probably from the early 50s. However the moron who has it thinks that it's worth $100 or more even though he got it for free, also on craigslist. Somehow it didn't dawn on him that if it were worth anything that he would not have got it for free on CL in the first place.
Regards
