Found this on CL just as it was listed for a paltry $180. Immediately ran over to the cabinet shop with cash in hand. Pretty complete - 5 throat plates and Baldor 3HP single phase motor. Currently wired for 110 but will be switched back to 220. No motor cover (not sure if these had them, though there are screw holes suggesting it may have at least been an option), large hole cut in right side of cabinet needs to be covered and pretty awful red paint job. Couldn't persuade seller to part with his UniFence, so will slap on the Incra Jig Ultra I have lying around. I doubt I'll strip or even paint. I'm planning on putting it right into service, so will likely only fabricate a motor cover, plug the hole on the other side, clean the raise/lower and tilt mechanisms and square everything up. I will post more pics when that's done and fence is installed.
