I'm in the UK. I've two 507s.

Ten years ago I  managed to get a third magazine out of a scrap wall box I purchased, to give me more selection choices,  the magazines are "bulletproof"  but the belt was U/S. They go very brittle and I found it unrepairable

I found it impossible to find anyone with a replacement belt. Eventually through the old Phonoland messageboard, I found someone in the USA with a small stock of 507 wall boxes, but no spare belts. (sorry I can't remember who, but he was very helpful) So I bought a box and got him to just send me the belt, as the cost of shipping the whole box would have been more than what I paid for it.

Like doghouseriley, we never were successful in finding replacement belts. From what we know they are not available anywhere.
Unless one US member kows of a non-jukebox-related source in USA.

You could try using a power tool knotched drive belt. Just a case of finding one the right width and length, though it might be possible to shorten one if it's too long if it's made of rubber.

The timing belts in Rock-Ola Tri-Vue wallboxes look in general like this one used in some German Bergmann jukebox:
www.jukebox-world.de/en/Jukebox-Parts-Europe/Bergmann-Harting-Jupiter-Atari/Transmission-belt-Bergmann.html
But Bergmann belts do not fit - almost one tooth too small if I recall right.

The Bergamnn belt was reproduced by us - means a new mold was made, because these special belts are out of production at all. At least this is what major belt suppliers resp. manufactureres told us.
