It doesn't look too bad beyond the usual layer of...protective...dirt! Def needs cleaning/lube, and definitely follow the advice about the print head hammer before you turn it on.

Hi everyone,

I have finally managed to buy an ASR33 in the UK.
It's in a bit of sorry state as you can see from the Ebay listing here

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/276831623016

It's going to take a lot of work to clean it up and I'll attempt to get it working over the next few weeks (I collect it on Thursday 6th February)

There are some parts obviously missing such as the front panel and local/remote select knob, platen knob etc.

There seems to be plenty of online video and reading material to support me but if you do have any suggestions or observations from these pictures, please let me know.

Thanks

Ian
