The dark grey Teac units were mostly found in the Sanyo silver units, the
MBC-55x series and I needed one last year and it took forever to locate what
I needed. I took a blackfaced unit and used it but swapped some odd parts
for a worthless grey faced unit to use the lever and faceplate from. Two
drives combined equaled a good drive, spare black parts and one DOA in the
scrap barrel.
-> I've got a huge box full Teac FD-55 drives somewhere. I think they all
-> have the gray faceplate/levers instead of black or ivory. All of those
-> drives were pulls from working equipment, so I think they are all in
-> working order. I might be willing to get rid of just a few of
-> these later,
-> once I get everything moved into the new shop ;)
