How do you explain original machines that have been in the same family
since new that have mismatched works? There are different shades of
mechanisms and for what those machines cost originally people were
picky. If you expect to find a period written record good luck.

Seems that after many of those machines left the factory the retail
dealers swapped the mechanisms to make customers happy with the color of
the machine.

Jerry is correct about mixing a 1A and a III, but a 1B uses the same
mechanism as the III. Even so, the number stamped into the III mechanism will
not match that on the 1A/B cabinet. This sort of mixing& matching permanently
separates mechanisms and cabinets, preventing the proper restoration of the
original machines. I'd advise against it.

Does anyone happen to know how much difference there is between the guts of
an
Amberola I and a III? Hoping to do a swap into a Amberola I cabinet from a
messed up III I have...
Thanks...
