South Bend 9A

Oh, but it says works with a .699 bore bearing it appears, I see what your saying. Wonder if it could be modified...or maybe a .875 bore bearing, with same OD, as the .699...lol, it's always something..
 
I didn't see it in the pic, but where is the rest of the drive train?
It would be provided (the bullgear) pictures just where not included, but I believe I am going to pass on this one the seller has been difficult to get pictures from.
 
I had one in about the same shape for $350, easy to repair that bullgear for zero cost. I ran it for 7 years before hand planning the ways off a DIY fixture on the tailstock ways. It was off about .003" 2-3" from the chuck and I got tired of working around it. It's still my main lathe and perfectly fine for hobby or even light mfg use
