Good morning,

I wish you luck in completing this deal.  It's rare one finds a pristine
anything that is 50 years old.

However, I'm afraid you're going to miss out on some of the fun.  For
example figuring out why you have no CR. (mouse dropping on the stunt box
where hard to see without removing SB).  Or on a different machine why you
get random CR after an N (hopefully a function reset bail adjustment will
fix).

As I sit here reflecting on my success yesterday of getting my ASR to the
point I put the sheet metal back in place, I realized how boring this would
have been if all my orphans had worked perfectly after unloading them here.
Yesterday I learned why so many of the printers I've seen over the past 50
years didn't have the stamped flat hex head identification screw any more.
It's much harded to get started than the screw driver slotted one on the
other end.

Let us know when you finally get it. Pictures?
