South Bend + Bridgeport Combo on CL

This might be a good find for 3K, been in storage for years. serial # 4031HKR?, CAT # CL3155E on the lathe.

I would like them better for $2000. Did you see them run?

Nope, just saw them on cl. Lathe has an 8 ft bed.

If you need them and they run ok, then you did ok.

I don't ever buy machines that are advertised in photos sitting on a pallet, and unable to be tested. But that's me.

That mill looks like its spent some time outdoors or in a high humidity area.

It's from a machine sales outfit in Ft. Forth, looking for a "quick sale".

 

[Lassen Forge]

Looks like both did. If you don't mind doing at least a partial resto before you ran either, and are willing to put the $$$ into whatever weird other issues they may have (that's a **** shoot), you're OK, but they're not ready for "plug and play"...

Edited to add... Hmmm.. A machinery company looking for a "quick sale" doesn't sound too promising. I'd offer them a grand and see how quick the sale was.

I agree^^
