Comments:

I believe this is from 1958, same year I was born! This is a South Bend 10L with a camlock spindle. This has a taper attachment, collet rack, under mount motor in cabinet. It seems missing the tail stock. Has metric transposition gears, and a metric chart on the side of the machine. Has a toggle clutch and I believe hardened bed. I will know better when I have it at home.

Being a Toolroom model the collet rack and taper attachment were includes, with either a lever or handweel collet holder. Has the large dials. Louis Allis motor, which was a surprise, I like those motors.
