How much you give me to take it off your hands? It would take a lot but is could work.

Actually it doesn't look all that scary...
My first question would be "Do you have any of the standard items not shown like the fence, at least the lower saw guard, the lathe tool rest or any other of the giblets like drill chuck or lathe centers?"
Could be a fun project... Shame it doesn't have a caster set.

Doubt the missing stuff is either close by or recognized by the seller.

However it does come with SPT!













Significant Pitting Throughout. :D

In the antique tractor hobby we refer to that as "Light surface rust..." :D

A unit like that would generally be of more value to someone like me with a sizable stash of parts units, SPTs and giblets etc. but by the same token since I have all of those I don't feel a big need to acquire any more of them.
Then again if it were with-in 20 miles and for sale for about $40 I just might feel a certain magnetic attraction to it... :rolleyes: (I own a couple of horses like that :o :) ) and have to rescue it from the scrap yard.
