I can sell a tape drive or recover your tapes. I have at least two in a decent condition that I rebuilt recently. One I used last month to recover Trevor Horn's tapes.

Unless you have new tape roller installed you can't use any old tape drive under any condition. No matter used or new-old-stock. It will destroy your tape completely. Also, you can't use the cartridge unless it's re-belt. Recovering old tapes is a science for sure.
