Jeff- that's a General 160 with Reeves drive variable speed, but mine is about 20 yrs. old and 110v? The mechanical VS is noisy and not as smooth as an electronic VS, but it is very useable and could be easily converted to EVS if desired. The belts are easily replaced with link belts, and they do quiet down the drive somewhat. I have kept mine because it's the only longbed lathe I own, and I hate to lose old friends!
