Restoring a Wilcox Gay IC 10?

Hi again, folks.

I was just perusing eBay looking at cutters, etc. when I came across a Wilcox Gay IC-10 recorder. I am interesting in purchasing it but wondering if anyone can give me an average of what restoring something like this might cost? It looks like it is in decent cosmetic condition but I realize that's not an indication of the mechanical/electrical condition.

Enjoy your worries, you may never have them again.

I have a fully restored 6a10 model, I paid 250$ for it, plus another 700$ in parts, so 1k total, took me 6 months to track down people who can fix for me. its not easy but it is nice. I have 2 other Wilcox cutters as well for spare parts
