Comments:
I just purchased this machine from a shop that was no longer using it. It looks like it has been sanded down and masked but was never painted and has been sitting for awhile. In general, it's in good shape but it needs some new bearings and the electricals need to be reworked.

I am planning on taking it apart, repainting it with the original colors and putting the electrical system back to how it was when new.

I need spindles and sanding parts if anyone has a supplier.
