Picked this up from a local guy who was sorting through his grandfathers auto garage and getting it back up and running. It was rusted solid when I got it. I used electrolysis to remove the rust and free it up. The hardest part of the restore was realizing that pin needs to be hammered/peened to remove or install. I might paint the letters someday. I couldn't make up my mind on it, so this is how it might be for a while. The old jaws were broken, so I milled up some brass ones. I hope someday to find one of those portable ratchet drills to go with it.
