Comments:

This machine was purchased off of CL in Oct 13 in Appleton Wisc.
Came with a huge Kurz and Root 1hp motor made right in Appleton.
Only thing missing was the original elevation handle.

These are quasi rare and I caught this on a fluke searching CL 600 miles away from home. Received via a pick up and rucker to my area.

I remove that motor and added a correct era Craftsman 1/2 hp motor and correct cast iron motor mount. I also added the elevation handle from a parts machine.

No history from the seller.
