My family purchased a VPI 16.5 Record Vacuum for me for Father's Day (I am so lucky). I am selling my damaged Nitty Gritty Record Doctor II. It needs to have the capstan/spindle (I am not sure what it's called, but it's the thing that is inserted into the record hole for turning) replaced as it has broken off. A new capstan/spindle replacement kit can be purchased through Nitty Gritty, Inc..
SPINDLE REPLACEMENT KIT (2 spindles, drill bit, adhesive) $15.95
CAPSTAN REPLACEMENT KIT (4 Capstans) $15.95
I will include an almost full bottle of Record Doctor cleaning solution, and two sets of brand new velvet pads. I am asking $50 shipped in the U.S.
Incidently, the vacuum motor works just fine.
