This DP was my Grandfather-In-Laws, and He used it in his auto body shop. He passed away some time ago so I have no information, nor can I find ANYTHING on this DP. I do know that it weighs about 350 lbs or 7 visits to the chiropractor.
Should anyone have information about this DP or have an idea where I should even look, please email me...Ive been searching for sometime, and have found VERY little, and nothing remotely close.
The bottom pict...yeah the really bad one...is actually a placard that reads:
Leland-Gifford-Company

Also this machine was painted grey by the Gramps-in-Law (using floor paint, you know the kind with the lil bits of sand in it...yeah, lovely)It was originally black. The motor mounts half way up the back where the belt goes up, over 2 pullies, and then onto the head.
