Ordered the belts today from a1parts canada, They will be in cool storage until the box needs them, I'm guessing they were replaced sometime in the past 33 years, as the deck works perfectly and rewind and fast forward are fast, I bought the box from someone who got it from an antique store a few years ago, Maybe the antique dealer rebelted the box? I can't see rubber belts lasting that long, But then again this box looks as if it never left the living room....
