Beware if it has the original drive electronics still in it. It's a terrific lathe to run but do some reading about the original drive and the efforts to repair/convert/update it. From what I've read it's indeed doable but not for the faint of heart.

That is a pretty rough round dial early 10EE. The round dials and early square dial machines til aprox 1955 were motor/generator NOT tube drives. That said, the tube drive issues have been solved for a decade with electronic tube replacements and great support for all drive styles
OP
What would be a good price for this? Sitting in barn/garage for 7+ years, not under power.

A realistic price IMO, 1500-2000 the lower being good higher fair.

There are way better alternatives out there that are more useful if you are actually going to use the lathe.
If you're just after garage candy, go for it.

I made an offer and gave the reasoning, that's all I can do.
