old bench grinder

[gospartins29]

I got a old sears 5 inch bench grinder model no 315.1964. I was woundering how old it is, and how much i could sell it for if i wanted to sell, and what the history about this is. Pls and thanks for reading this

That part number is still valid at searspartsdirect.com. I tried it and it came up.

Condition is the most important part of the value equation.
Could you post a picture?
If I had to guess, I would say it is worth anywhere from $10 to $50.

Still listed on the parts website, but the only "parts" available are screws/bolts/nuts.

I think it is from the 60-70's. They are pretty pathetic, $10 if it ran good and had OK wheels on it.

Is it entirely cast aluminum housing?

Would make a good tungsten grinder for a tig weldor.

Oh, it's one of those.
In that case, it's probably worth somewhere between $5 and $20.

Again, we really need a picture, but it won't be worth much regardless.

Does it look sort of like this older Kmart Bench Grinder?

These were badged under Sears, Kmart and others. They are not the most desirable bench grinders but if the wheels are serviceable you might get $20 for it.
