My brother in law moved recently and in his attic, we found an 8MM projector.
It's a Montgomery Ward Model 831A.
It looks like everything works (except for the speaker, which should be easy to replace), but there is a small belt inside that appears to have expanded so the gears don't connect quite right.
I haven't been able to figure out how to get the belt out of there without taking a bunch of things out.
Does anyone know where I can find a manual or can anyone tell me how to replace it?
Thanks.
