Finally found one
 
1 Attachment(s)
There is a restoration shop nearby that we are trying to acquire whose owner died suddenly after being diagnosed with cancer. We are working with the widow to try and take over the shop over along with it's employees as we desperately need to expand. In the meantime and through our negotiations this was found in a back room and had not been used for many years. She wanted $175 for it but needless to say I gave her a lot more than that for it as she was way underpriced. Been looking for several years for one of these.

GREAT SCORE
Yea, I thought I had bought at $800 and I was happy to pay that, someone else offered $1000 and bought it before I got to it.

Nice Rick. Congrats. That one looks cleaner than the one I just sold. I grabbed this one for 100 bucks and when I got home I found the ignition simulator inside the cabinet with manuals and manameter(?) fluid in original bottle. I just sold it a couple weeks ago.

Rick,

Congrats vintage machines are cool...as the older guys who have shops move on into retirement there are good scores to be had for sure. I recently picked up a 1970 model AC ST-200 this was the machine that service bays had for the old points cars.
