Before you do anything though, check the condition of the heads. Teac heads are no longer being made. Something to also consider, being that its an "R" deck, you may want to cover up the reverse head if auto reverse is less important to you than having an extra head. Obviously when the time comes to actually use the deck.

The Heads are worn. I was told they were not beyond re-lapping but I don't have the money for this, obtaining the WOPL is number 1 priority at present. I wouldn't mind getting a belt and trying the X1000R out anyway.
