[GreenKeys] Model 43 tape punch-reader project

One of my interests is the ‘retro’ product styling of the late 60‘s - mid 70’s.  The Model 43 (and 42) tape punch/reader is a classic example of this.
Doubtful I will find an original, I may try making a replica of the enclosure, and put in a suitable tape punch/reader, from say a model 32.  Anyone
who has photos, drawings, manuals or technical information, let me know.  Thanks to Don House, for already helping out on the project!

Also, I saw online (probably a Teletype ad, not sure I saved it), a reference made to a ‘cassette storage’ option for this model.  Is that referring to a
peripheral storage device?  Did such a device exist?

Below are a couple nice photos of a 43 TTY and tape punch/reader, in you are interested.

As mentioned in a separate post, I’m also looking for a Model 43 (42) Teletype, hopefully close to New Jersey.
