Garrard 100C Zero Tracking tonearm + motor huge spare parts lot from 1970s

Description: A Treasure Trove of Garrard Zero 100C Turntable Parts — removed from Early 1970s 100C.... Up for grabs is a smorgasbord of parts from a cosmetically challenged but mechanically sound Garrard Zero 100C turntable, circa early 1970s. Garrard, that fine British maker of turntables, really outdid themselves with this complex consumer model—layering on complexities that earned it a legendary status in turntable lore. What you’re getting here is an assortment of parts that could breathe life back into your own Zero 100C or another cherished project. Now, these parts weren’t just pulled willy-nilly. Everything you’ll find here was carefully removed and bagged, ready to serve. Some parts may need a bit more elbow grease than others, but for the DIY enthusiast, there’s enough here to spark that old tinkering spirit. That said, **this is not a comprehensive parts lot that you could build an entire table from.** It’s focused on the essential, needful items you might want while servicing a turntable. Please **study the photos carefully** to ensure what you’re looking for is included, and feel free to ask questions if you’re uncertain. - **Three bags of English metric screws** – - **A bag of springs** – Contains approximately 3 or 4 springs, likely needed for various mechanisms. - **Motor mounts** – Supple, soft rubber, ready to absorb vibrations . - **Garrard record adapter, stamped “Made in England”** – A charming piece of history in itself. - **Idler wheel** – Still supple, no flat spots, looks almost like new. - **Dirty line cord with original plug** – Serviceable and authentic. - **Complete Garrard Synchrolab Series 2 motor** – Includes its wiring harness and stroboscopic lamp, with what appears to be a starting cap or switch mechanism. In beautiful shape. - **Original record mat** – Supple and flexible, with that nice OEM look. - **Stamped aluminum sub platter and steel stroboscope top platter** – Look nice but not extensively inspected - **Spindle center** – Essential for holding records steady. - **Four original plastic feet** – To keep your turntable solid and steady. - **A couple of unidentified plastic parts** – Bonus pieces, just in case. - **A little bag of c-clips** – Handy for those mechanical reattachments. And now, the pièce de résistance: the **Zero Tracking Error Tonearm**—a feat of mechanical ingenuity (or mechanical nightmare of your choosing). This marvel of design was meant to maintain perfect alignment with the grooves of your records, compensating for tangential errors with elegance, if not without a certain level of complexity. While mechanically stunning, you’ll need to bring your own skill set to the table for a proper installation or resto!. The arm has been fully removed, but most parts are intact. Expect some minor oxidation, but all in all, this looks to have survived quite well, with everything moving freely. The shaft, bearing, and most hardware are included, though you’ll need to hunt down a few pieces yourself. The RCA jacks are still wired up, but there’s **no cartridge or stylus**—you’ll have to find those elsewhere. Consider this a project for the mechanically inclined, an autumn evening’s labor that could pay off handsomely. Whether you’re restoring your Zero 100C or just need rare parts—this is your lot. Everything comes as-is, untested but carefully removed from a working turntable. Bagged, packed, and ready for your patient hands. All parts will be packed in a double box for ultra-safe delivery. Overseas buyers are welcome through the eBay Global Shipping Program. Feel free to ask any questions or check your fitment needs before purchase—this is a parts lot, sold whole, and too hard to break up piece by piece.
