I've been sort of looking for a new project, aiming to add another 3-speed idler deck (to sort of take the place of the TD-124), but didn't want to spend an arm and a leg.
I just saw on eBay a Rek-O-Kut B-12-H with a starting price of $180 and a "make offer" option, so I offered $20 over the start price, and whaddya know, it was instantly accepted.
It looks to be pretty clean, and has the Papst motor, which I'm guessing is the best version of the B12 to have. I look forward to tearing it down and building a stacked plinth.
For an arm, I still have my Grado Lab Series wood arm, which @marcmorin helped me recondition, so I'll use that; hopefully it will be a drop-in fit.
Stay tuned...
