This is my new lathe, I will get better pics, but for now these pics came from the seller's phone. I gave a deposit a couple weeks ago, but just picked up the lathe and workbench today.
I hope to get it in my garage next week, but have it on my flatbed at my yard with a tarp on it until next week.
Got a fair bit of tooling with it, has the accumulator dial on it, 2 steady rests (one large, one small), 2 8" buck chucks (both 3-jaw), 1 6" buck with a backing plate that needs to be added to it, several jaws for each 8" and 6" (inside and outside), taper attachment, spindle nose, what looks to be a full set of collets (71 pieces), collet lever, an Aloris tool post, a Phase III post, several tool holders (some Aloris, some Phase III), 12" slotted face plate, 10" dog plate, wrenches, and other chatchka tooling...there are 11 2J collets in the deal also, index cutters, boring bar, a couple small machinist vises (one Jacob, and some other). All in all, a fair bit of kit.
Came with the 1020F/1030F manual which I will be scanning for Greg to post on the Rivett Lathe site. I also have the 1020F brochure (a scan, so quality is so-so) and a parts list for Stearns Magnetic Disc Brakes. That is from 1961.
Now the odd thing, the machine is dated 1963, but the manual from Leland Gifford has the serial number of the lathe and the model, and stamped by Leland Gifford, but dated September 1st, 1967.
Serial number 441. Has the newer electronic tachometer and 13-1/2" swing rather than 12-1/2" as the 1020S. Since my manual is for the 1020F/1030F it has the diagrams for the accessories of the 1020F/1030F also, like taper attachment, stead rest, follower rest, etc...and the larger swing of course.

(Apologies for the poor pics, from the seller's phone and last one is my daughter's camera which I don't know how to use. Better pics to come.)
