I picked this up at a local estate sale. I didn't have my truck and I had to pay and leave it there over night. I figued there was a 50/50 chance that I would get a refund after it was sold to soneone else. I got there first thing and it was still there so we loaded it up. My fears were genuine as there had been a couple of offers in the afternoon.

The ways and cranks are tight with dry grease. I will have to disassamble and clean it before it is put into operation. It is missing the cam lock but I do have a work around solution in mind. I don't expect to see one pop up on eBay any time soon.
