Copped a Dico lite

sonofeltopo - 2013-11-07 13:06

So I got a call from my dad on Sunday he was at a flea market and he says "there's a big boombox here it says disco" i stopped him and said "does it look like it lights up?" He goes "ya know what, I think it does"  I immediately told him "buy it!" It turned out he had found me the infamous disco lite!

The middle speaker Lights do not work. I think at least one is bad but and the left side speakers are extremely low in volume.

Here's a couple of cell pics (ill upload some better ones and some before and after cleaning and slight restoration)

WOW nice catch...your father is the game with you thats great...i dont like how they go for so much on eBay...but at a flea market its a nice score. The problm with the light probably can be fix...you're only missing the tuner knob thats not hard to replace!
