I have an UA14 just like the one in the first picture of this thread, but with a large gold plastic decorative panel.

Also, i'm restoring an "audiophile" variant of the popular black 70s BSR changer, it's fitted with a 4-pole motor, a metal turntable, a better arm with a real adjustable counterweight and better bearings, antiskating control, and a Shure MM cartridge, i'm planning to use this changer in my stereo system in place of a 70s Marantz, at least as long as it's able to track at 1.5 grams and the rumble from the BSR idler drive system is within acceptable levels

I'll post some pictures when i'll be able to put it back together.
