Hi Rod,
The typical issue is finding a replacement cartridge and perhaps the drive puck (rubber wheel). I would anticipate it may run $30 each. Also it probably only plays 78rpm records. A lot of older consoles in the 50's got the original turntable exchange for the newer 3sp tables. Don't know if the 78 player is a must but will add a bit of cost to the price tag.

ps. After consulting the diagram I noticed that it uses a mag cartridge. i think this is the model that uses a very hard to find styles.
