Restoring a Transrotor Skeleton...help

Just pulled this baby out of storage where it's been for several years. So long I think that sitting has caused it more harm than if it had been used. One of the glass panes on the outer cover sides has been broken and needs to be replaced. The tone arm looks like it needs a re-wire, the wires are cracked and just look plain old. The motor seems dead, but it could just be the power cord. This table is so beautiful that I want to see it working again so I've decided now is the time to begin this project. If anyone out there is familiar with these legendary tables and where to get parts or find other enthusiasts, I would be greatly appreciative for any info you could throw my way.

Probably helps to get the name right first. Transrotor is a German turntable manufacturer. You probably have a Transcriptors Skeleton, perhaps with Vestigial arm. I have done a restoration on one. The company is back in business and has some limited support available for the older models. The website can be found here:

Best of luck with your project.
