Who buys and restores these?
Probably only true 'buffs' and collectors who are not always easy to find and since these consoles are very expensive to ship, it would need to be someone in your area.
You can ask your question on this forum and they may be able to help you. Be sure to tell them where you are located.

Selling a non-working machine will probably be difficult but you can always try.
List it with several pictures on several sites like Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, letgo, offerup and start your price high and maybe also best offer with 'local pick up only' and be sure to state not working - parts only.
Just lower the price if no one makes an offer.

Normally you would sell this item for parts only. One good place to start is on an old radio/stereo forum. There are still a lot of people who love to restore these old stereos because they still can find old records to play on them. There are also a lot of people who just love the sound of records and have a large collection of them. If you are looking to sell this there is a possibility that you can list this on a stereo forum that deals with older model stereos and restoring them or even on eBay.

I see a lot of people list older record players for parts only there. In this condition, you can get around $60 or so for the unit. When listing it online to sell make sure you list this as a pick-up item only. They are so hard to ship and if a person is just buying this for parts he won't want to pay the high shipping cost to get this unit.
