Ok, I just bought real cheap old professional-grade video recorder. Uses 1 inch tape, the whole thing. It's a Panasonic NV-9500. It uses a cassette. I needs some going over, which having done so many times with consumer grade video and tape recorders, I know I can do myself. The problem is, I want to replace parts, like belts, friction bands, etc. A bonus would be to get a actual manual. Have I asked Panasonic yet? No. I am going to, but I suspect the dweebs there will claim they never made it, it's too old to bother with, whatever. Any suggestions? I live in the greater Los Angeles area, but will consider other areas if need be. Thanks for any help!Regards,
Gene lambert

I did this in the early 80s with an old Sony EV series 1" machine. I actually built a low band direct color machine with parts from an IVC 800 and the video boards from an Ampex VR7900. Great project and I learned a lot. But looking back, a big waste of money. I threw the thing out in 1995. Go ahead and have fun with this machine. The Panasonic 1" units are very rare by the way. But I wouldn't spend and significant money on it. The parts are going to be next to impossible to get. But with the internet, who knows what you will find. If this stuff interests you you can get 1" TYPE C broadcast machines real cheap these days.i have seen late model Sony BVH2000's on EBAY for as low as $1500. The parts are expensive but available. Tape can be found used in many places. Plus you will have a machine that rivals DVD and in some cases exceeds it. Good Luck.
