Next project, turning two Aiwa J9's into one good one. The photos are from the sellers' ads. Obviously the blue one is thoroughly corroded. I don't expect the motor, main board, or motor board to be usable. Even the mechanism would require more cleaning than it's worth. I hope the equalizer is ok because I need one for another unit. The silver one has various bits missing. The missing radio dial knob is irreplaceable. Its insides look clean, but it will require the usual repairs. I hope to use the blue case parts as they are one of the rarest colors and luckily it has the blue battery lid. Fixing the metallic blue paint on the cassette lid will be the most difficult task. I may swap the blue panels with a black J9, since the silver ones are more desirable than black. Missing, irreplaceable dial part Nice clean main board. And the blue one. Corrosion at the farthest areas from the battery compartment and on the motor mounts are very bad signs.
