Akai AP-005 Belt Drive Turntable

 
Made in 1978, the Akai AP-005 was part of the greatest lineup of turntables that Akai ever made before and since.  It's a beauty to behold (even if the lid has cosmetic issues but no breaks or cracks).  It is a fully automatic turntable - flick a lever then sit back and let it do its thing.
 
This one is fully serviced with a new belt and will come with a new audio Technica AT-VM95E cartridge - all that is worth $500 on its own.
