help! searching for a particular walkman

I am searching for a walkman that has the following features. If anyone knows of a particular model, please let me know.
Ideally, it would have either all or almost all of the following:
auto reverse
recorder
tape
radio
have digital push button play/stop/rew/ff, not the mechanical push buttons
be able to remove the front of the walkman/door of the cassette player and still have the cassette work (some of the nicer, later Sonys with digital push buttons have some of the tape mechanisms in the cassette door, rendering it necessary and thus won't work for my application).
It doesn't have to be a great model, it could be a simple radioshack model (but i doubt they ever made such a nice one). I would just like to get one for cheap and in working order. I know that sony/aiwa made some with the digital push buttons later on, but just don't know which models, and those seem to be a little expensive.
I am using it for circuit bending.
Thx in advance!

Cheap out of the question, when you said logic controls and recorder in the same sentence, their is no budget models for thoses. Their one on eBay for $74.99 and thats a good price, not my listing, but another known seller.
Door can be removed by removing the screws on the side and two on the bottom of the door.

The only one that comes to my mind is the superb AIWA HS-J08, but it is pretty rare and expensive. It has all the things you ask for, and nothing in the front door.
the majority of the controls are in the upper side and some in the front side
