Comments:

Just purchased this Red Star Multiplex 40-A. Not a complete basket case, but not too great either. Missing front crank (per usual apparently) and I think the table mounting hardware. Otherwise all intact. I believe it may be a later Red Star as it has the handle mounted switch that shows up on the Delta branded Multiplex. This is just supposition based on pictures though since I'm not sure how to date the saw.

Will be torn down and restored.
