Blockbuster Boombox

[cmd1013]

I just obtained a GE Blockbuster 3-5259A for $80 it's actually in decent shape the knobs are good some static but not much at all, cassette does not work the antenna is a bit bent, I wanna get it restored but I am lost....HELP!!!!

Lots of information here regarding fixing the blockbuster deck, just search. Unless you want it repaired professionally, then just search for a vintage electronics repair shop. However there are some idiosyncratic issues specific and common with these decks that are addressed here in the forums that other technicians may not be aware of. Also I may have some parts remaining for those issues.. contact me if your deck indeed has those common failures.
