I just picked this machine up today for $600. It is in great shape. The only identification is on the back side in the middle where it says simply "AMERICAN". It is similar to other lathes on this web site, however the head stock is unlike any others listed here. After taking the picture, we were able to find the tool rest so I believe it is complete. I can't wait to make the chips fly.
