Ampex Tape Recorder Replacement Parts

[Donald Campbell]

I am trying to repair two Ampex tape decks. The first an Ampex AX-300
needs a capstan idler. The second, a Model 960 needs a set of belts and
a capstan idler.
Do you know where I can obtain these parts?

Thanks, Don Campbell

might come across. Thanks!
