Got a screaming deal on my lathe and honestly didn't know it was a SB 9 until after I got it home. A local high-end race track performance car shop was letting it go to make room for a larger Grizzly lathe.

Tons of tooling, not a tooth missing, and ways were actually somewhat decent. Here are two photos of the pickup and after restoration.
