Pioneer CT - F500 Tape Deck scored at local antique mall!

At a local warehouse antique mall I scored a cool vintage Tape Deck!  It is a Pioneer CT F500 and it dates back to the mid 70's!  It is working but upon using I noticed that it would not play!  It would fastword and rewind and everything else but not play.  So I took it to my local guitar shop guy who has been fixing an old Casio deck and we opened it up.  Immediately we noticed the main belt (power?) was melted all over the place.  The rest were still good and working.  Stay posted as I found some belt kits online!  This one should be a good save as the motors appear to be good and it has only light wear!
