Rockwell/Delta DP Model Help

[ssickman]

My father recently passed away and the Rockwell/Delta DP he had in his shop is missing the serial number plate on the side of the drill press head. Any help with identifying this model and a valuation would be appreciated.

Looks a lot like this early Rockwell/Delta 15-655 from the 1960s.

Originally a Clausing design; Rockwell bought them and continued the production. It's a well respected machine and should sell quickly. The selling price varies by area, but $250 - $500 is the range.

Hard to tell from the photo, but does that have a production table with a lift down below, and a separate standard table above? That would certainly increase the asking price a bit.

Thank you Jack. Today I was able to locate where my Dad had the equipment manuals. The main manual refers to it as a VS6 but there are two other sheets that reference 15-080 and 15-850 shown in the attached images. Any thoughts?
