Well done sir. I like that you have saved this from the trash and made it into a very respectable and serviceable record deck.

It's a Garrard. They sold tons of these here in Brazil throughout the 80's. It came with a Pickering V15 cartridge and DAT 2 stylus.

I remember when I was 12 (1982) and around a lot of apartment complexes dumpsters I would find good TVs, stereos, and an ocasional clock radio that worked perfectly good.
