A Dayton newspaper had an ad for your model in 1969 and there is a magazine ad for sale on etsy mentioning 1968. Here is a video of a repair that might be similar, I think: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHgKbGp67_s. As far as parts, you'll probably need to seek them separately and specifically (e.g., turntable needle, tube, etc.). I also might recommend searching for information on reddit.

These are from the late 1950s to the mid 1960s.

You can contact Zenith directly here: zenith.com/.../

I found the same Zenith model as yours: picclick.com/Zenith-Vintage-1968-Stereo-Record....
The seller wrote "Model Y924", but as you can see in the photo, this is exactly the same model as yours.

It says that this model is from 1968.
The cabinet measures about 54 inches long by 18 inches deep by 24 inches tall.
Zenith Vintage 1968 Stereo Record Player Console Model Y924 was sold for $100. Local pick up. It's been tested, the radio and the speakers sound great, the stylus is intact and working well. There are a few little dings and scratches.

I found Sams Photofact schematic for various Zenith stereo consoles www.ebay.com/.../333377086871
The first one lists the X942M model i.ebayimg.com/.../s-l1600.jpg. Date 6-67. Therefore, I think that model X942 was made in 1967.

If you are planning to sell your console, it is best to first calculate how much the repair will cost. It may be more profitable to sell your console as it is.
