Bushnell Reflector Telescope with Tripod – Spares / Repair / (Kidlington OX5)

Giving away an older Bushnell reflector telescope with tripod. It looks like a nice telescope and seems generally in reasonable physical condition, but it is not complete and I cannot confirm its optical condition, so I am offering it as a restoration/project item rather than as a ready-to-use telescope.

Details from the telescope:
-Bushnell model 78-3612
-700 mm focal length
-76 mm objective
-Tripod included
-Finder scope included

Important: some parts are missing, including the eyepiece/lens assembly that should fit where the white protective cap is shown in the photos. The internal mirror is present, but I don't have the knowledge/equipment to assess its condition or whether it is correctly aligned and working as it should.

It could be a worthwhile little project for someone interested in astronomy who already has suitable parts, or who enjoys restoring telescopes. I would much rather see someone bring it back into use than throw it away.

Please look carefully at the photos to see exactly what is included.

If the advert is still live, it is still available.

Please include your proposed collection day and time when messaging.
