something is way out of whack with the focus apparatus. Does the lens platform go in and out all the way?

Regarding the focus issue on the 635:

The taking and viewing lenses are collimated, if it is in focus on the focus screen it produces a sharp photo.
Within its range of focus - 3 feet to approximately 8 feet, it produces excellent results.
The front lens panel goes in and out evenly, and does not appear to have been dropped.
The focus travel is smooth.
However it does not go in all the way flush to the body, there is about an 1/8th of an inch
gap there. So the focus travel will need to be adjusted.

How does one adjust the focus that is from 3 to 8? Is it tampered with on purpose or is something wrong?

 

[sharpnikkor]

The internal focus arms or the lenses need to be collimated.
It is being sold for parts or repair.
