LabGuy's World: 1967 Panasonic NV-8000 pre-EIAJ VTR New Addition! 01.05.30 New Photos! 01.07.26 1967 Panasonic NV-8000 pre-EIAJ VTR .         This model is also very very rare. This machine runs at 12 IPS giving a 40 minute recording time per 7 inch reel with 2400 feet of tape. It has a push button video head cleaner, visible at the top of the head drum. When pressed, a small bristle brush just barely touches the faces of the video head tips. Probably compatible with the  rest of the 8000 and 8100 series. Sadly, this poor fella needs a new set of belts. Anyone know of a source for something like that? WANTED: Service and or operators' manuals for this machine.
