A friend purchased this machine from an OWWM member and brought it to my shop to do the restoration. We spent about a month off and on breaking it down and doing a complete restoration. It is now the centerpiece of his basement shop and a dream machine. While the machine tag is stamped as a 144-BD (direct drive), it was nicely converted to belt drive at some point in its life. The color is hammered black, with the motor gloss black.
