Picked up locally - North Bay, Northern California for $75.00, restored with new spindle and pulley bearings, replaced the base and column, and found earlier/older pulley cover with embossed "Delta" name. Added retirement light. Painted with Rust Oleum hammered black paint, highlighted Delta embossed pulley cover with Pilot Gold paint pen. Original base had a broken piece missing - still usable/functional but my instincts were to make it whole. Polished column on lathe and sealed with paste wax. Still need to add motor but happy with results so far. Total out if pocket expenses $225.00 so I'm in it for three bills.
