And a close-up of where the {what would be] phono cables taped into a power cord.

What is the black object the red arrow is pointing at?
That's the power cord in the field of vision that was spliced onto the phono cables. I tied it up later for the zoom out photo.
Next issue is you need to find out where the power cord is actually connected to the TT motor...
I take it it's from the 16v supply, which then ends up as green+black wire into the connector on the circuit board labeled 'B'...then the output to the motor from the four cables, blue red and black. I took the motor out to oil. No adapter came with the TT, I was considering a pro-ject speedbox to supply the 16v out.
Question, what is the black clip in the top left of the circuit board that holds the metal plate on the underside of the tonearm assembly (labeled D105 D109)?
I have a TD160, so I'm not familiar with any outboard PSU for a Thorens TT. Sorry, I don't know what the clip is for.
Thank you, you've been a huge help. I think my order of operation will be as follows:
-solder on shielded wire to the RCA connections, install RCA females and ground
-16v power supply (after researching, about $30 for replacement adapter on the td147; I saw a pro-ject speedbox sell on ebay for $75 the other day, I might as well save up for that, especially since it has a 16v out)
-new cartridge (at under $90, either shure M97XE or a Grado)
I hope that will get me going, at least. I'll tweak the tonearm later. Any other suggestions on how to make this into a great table are welcome.
