Hi All, First Post!
I was given this 9C this weekend by a friend who is moving and cannot take it with him. He bought it "restored" from craigslist 4-5 years ago and it has been sitting in his unheated garage in new england ever since. He never got power to it or did anything with it. The motor is a old westinghouse and along with the bracket has not been touched.
So far I have done some research and have noted the following.
*It has no switch
*missing oiler cups in several places
*the tail stock looks homemade
*there is a bunch of surface rust i started cleaning with PB blaster and scoth brite
All I got is what you see. There was no tooling or accessories with it
What can you guys tell me about this thing? Age ? Model (besides 9C)? Best place to get parts other than ebay ?
