Comments:

I bought this from a lady who was selling her 80 something year old Fathers tools, as he was moving to a retirement home. She told me that it had belonged to her Grandfather originally. It hadn't been used in years and it needed tires and bearings. It came with a Westinghouse bushed motor which I changed out to a 1/3 hp Dunlap ball bearing motor. Under the gray paint was the original blue and I used Rustoleum Gloss Dark Blue and Charcoal gray.I can"t get the blade to track for hell or high water,but I'll keep trying.
