THIS MACHINE IS NOT FOR SALE, DON'T ASK, AND NO I DO NOT WANT TO TRADE YOUR ITEM "X" FOR IT. THIS IS NOT A SALES FORUM AND I DO NOT HAVE MACHINERY FOR SALE HERE.

Serial # is lightly stamped, will confirm. Model #S-7399, Type SR14E, HP 1/4, V 115, Cy 60, RPM 3450.
I don't know much about this Packard/GM motor, it was used as a wire wheeling/grinding tool and I have set it up to do much the same with wire wheels only. It sat atop a mixture of repurposed "old arn" that has since found new uses and a more appropriate future. It does need a new cord, but this has been pressed into service as the Dunlap that preceeded it finally bit the dust. I paid $75 for the entire pedestal mounted thing shown below, from a used tool/machinery dealer here in Bfl.

Comments: Apart fm the wire wheel on the right in this ph, the only other thing to come along with the Packard is the wooden mount. Makes it easy to adapt mounting to the C'man pedestal.
