Hopin someone in the forum can help me identify the year and model # of this vintage GE stereo console I purchased the other day. Sadly it does not work, but my goal once I can figure out year and model #, I can find someone in my area that can bring it back to working condition.

It's an early to mid-60's unit designed as a stand-alone, or wall-mounted with the appropriate hardware.
It will require a complete restoration before any use.
Find (hopefully) a reputable local restoration tech and expect to put out around 250-350ish.
Then you'll have a nice stereo.
By the way, lock that tonearm on its rest before raising the changer - you've probably already destroyed the cartridge/needle.

The Internet is a marvelous thing, however it's not a good substitute for actually being there.

What's up with the extra speaker cabinet? --BB
Betcha, that's GE's "Porta-Fi" wireless speaker system.
Vinyl is disease which attacks that area of the brain desiring digital recordings. Once you catch it, you are cured.
