Yes. That has been modified in a couple of ways, besides the meter panel at the top. 
Originally, that top panel included a wide-range antenna coupler with an RF ammeter in the 
center-top of that panel.

Also, the bottom panel never had any meters in it originally.

Lastly, it is quite clear that the the panel above the VFO compartment has been replaced 
also. Originally, all were grey.

I see he also has a TV-2 tube tester. I have two of those plus a manual or two for mine.

One of mine works, and one doesn't.

I am not at all sure that the complexity of those is worth it, though.

Thanks for the info, Robert.
