Found this one on line. As it was a 4 hour trip away from me I bought it based on several pictures the seller sent to me. Although it looked very much like a Delta there were a number of things about the machine that made me uncertain . A search of the VM site failed to turn up any similar machines. During the course of disassembling the machine for restoration I found a decal hidden behind the switch box showing it to be a Champion. There were no other markings not even a foundry make or number.

It got the full treatment; bearings, paint, buff and wax. It is a solid machine and runs extremely well. I could not save the decal but one of the folks from OWWM provided me new artwork to make a new decal
