    I BELIEVE IT IS A 412, I MITE BE GETTING A MODEL 500 SOON FOR A RESTORE , ITS OWNED BY A  RESTRAUNT CHAIN HERE IN DALLAS AND THE OWNER OFF THE RESTRAUNT CHAIN MAY WANT IT DONE SO HE CAN PUT IT HIS HOUSE, AND ON TOP OF THAT (HOPEING) I AM GOING TO TRY AND GET HIM TO ADD ANTIQUE RADIOS TO HIS RESTRAUNTS AS THEY HAVE ANTIQUE STUFF AS PART OF THE DECOR.

A Wurlitzer 500 has a BIG cabinet. I had a 500 quite a while back. I have a 412 and mine originally ran off of DC power. It was in a mining town in Eastern Nevada and the town still had DC line power until the 50's. I bought the 1950's jukebox that had replaced the 412 in 1956 when the town converted to AC. When I went to pick the 1950's jukebox up the guy told me to take the 412 too if I wanted it. It had sat in this building unused and untouched since 1956 as the town had been using AC line power. Because of this it is almost perfect. I had to get a Wurlitzer AC motor and the correct amplifier/volume control to convert it back to AC power. I still have the 412 in storage.
