Sharp gf8989 restoration

[jamiefsmith]

Hi there,
I bought from new in 1980 ish the above boom box and still have it today.
Does anyone know of someone that could restore my system back to how it was when I first bought it back in the day?
The body is good with all knobs and switches present. The radio works although very crackly.
It will need new aerial
New tape head
A general overhaul.
Regards
Jamie

You are not far from me just north of Manchester.
I'm pretty sure I could service and make improvements to the working condition but you would need to get it to me.
Send me a PM.
