Also seems to have horizontal milling capability! There is a drive spindle showing on the column, and an outboard support in the pile of misc stuff. Also, there is a mix of spindle formats, but best guess is that it is a NMTB-30 spindle and the R8 holders need the adaptor. That would make it a copy of a copy like Jet or some other Taiwanese machines that seem fairly well regarded. And then there's the BP head. Altogether, if it is tight and accurate, seems like a deal.
 
A little snooping on the web and it looks like this is an English machine. Possibly even better than a 70's Taiwanese copy.

Edit: Just looked again and it is SOLD!
