Not worth fixing it. Time to move to an aftermarket unit so you can stream your music vs relying on old tapes. Check out Crutchfield. Probably $100.

As TDolby said it would cost more to fix it than to replace it. But if your goal is to keep the vehicle original try searching for a radio repair shop. Remove the radio from the vehicle and take it to the shop for repairs. The tape deck probably just needs a good cleaning and new belts. Hope that helps! Jim
