I acquired this machine in Alameda CA, from an estate/antique dealer. It was in pieces, aka a basket case. appeared to be mostly there, trunnion where good. So why not. Had to crown the tires twice (or got an education about crowning BS tires. Operates real well now. I researched the serial number and found the factory job card - original owner was Vought-Sikorsky Aircraft in Stratford, CT
How it ever got to Alameda is anyone's guess.
