See the tape drives? Does anyone know where these can be purchased? Working or not...

Maybe on Ebay? Craigslist?

Did you look at the 4th picture though? I count 4 motherboards, is that right? Just amazing...

This is kind of what I was looking for, except it's not old enough. This is an 80's era thing... I am looking for something from the 60's or possibly even 50's.

Fuck!

We called them mag tape drives. Maybe that will help in your search. Hard to find these days. They were replaced by Dat tapes.

How much can it store? 4KB?

Would you use it as interior detail?
