Continental Parts (UPDATE!) Or have tips

Well I went and looked at the juke...I was going to buy it but I noticed
another issue. The metal bracket that holds the title board to the back
of the jukebox is bent forward. Is that common? Is it fixable? Are
they available?

most that I have ever seen are bent forward (due to 40+ years of
supporting the weight of the titleboard and glass on such a small
piece cast from ****-metal.)



the usual fix is to use longer screws, and pack out with many washers
to tilt the titleboard forward at the bottom.

I would be absolutely amazed if this part were available anymore, of
if undamaged used ones were available. Reproduction ones might be
available.

the neck as they call it usually cracks in the webbing and sometimes can be
seen on the outside as well. Usually these are caused from handling the juke
by the title case. The neck was designed to support the title case but was
not designed to provide a hand hold for dollying the juke
