Notes: |
Source=owner’s submission. Owner’s notes: Still working on getting it back to it's original, tuned condition.
Was originally sold to WM. Halpern & Company, Inc, Mount Vernon, NY in late 1956, shipped on April 13th, 1957. Later owned by a machine shop in Linden, NJ. After being stored for approximately 15 years, I acquired it through the latter. VERY dirty, but seemingly only requiring minor repairs and care to run.
