I bought it in 1980. It has all the feed gears for threading. Also came with steady rest, 2 face plates, 3 dog drives and a 3 and 4 jaw chuck. Also came with a 3 step flat belt pulley.
It has its original black paint and has not been restored. I made the drive which is hung off the rear of the headstock with a 3/4 horsepower single phase motor. I purchased a quick change tool post which works nicely.
I use it quite often and is still very accurate.
