My dad and I made the drive down to Indianapolis to pick up the lathe. After inspecting Dave Richardson's pair of Rockwell lathes, I decied to disassemble it so that it would be easier to load and more stable for the trip home. Below are pics of the major pieces that I'm getting ready to start cleaning up. The only major problem is that the upper pulley is pretty much destroyed, however it looks like Dave has one that is worn but usable. Other than that the numbers on the handwheel are worn but I've located a replacement on Ebay or I might refurbish ths one by having my dad clean up the faces on his metal lathe and restamp the numbers. I'm also missing a few knobs and levers that I'll probably fabricate temporary replacements for until I can locate suitable permanent replacements.
Edit: I'm renaming the thread and will post progress pictures along the way so that the entire restoration is in one thread.
