Just to add info; this particular body & lens board has the solenoid shutter mod, so there's a battery connecter in the bellows compartment (for 9V battery) and a shutter/trigger on the top of the panel. The trigger works in that I can see voltage being applied to the two terminals leading out from the battery holder, but I don't have a solenoid cable to attach the terminals to the shutter, so I'm not 100% sure the shutter will correctly fire when V is applied.

Also, while the lens is the normal 135mm lens, the cam in the range finder is for a 180mm lens, so you'd have to score a 135mm cam elsewhere (or fabricate one yourself) if you want to use the rangefinder.

Wow...if I didn't just buy a Rolleiflex I'd be all over this. Been looking for one in this condition for a while.
