'LARGE" is not a size. You will get a lot more interest by finding the brand name, swing over the bed, swing over the cross slide, gap or not, distance between centers, electric voltage, motor HP, chuck size, other tooling included, and on it goes. When you say "accurate" what do you mean? HOW accurate from what measurements?

Looks as if it has lived a fairly hard life and I would be very surprised anyone would be in that price range unless it has a bunch of decent tooling.

I would agree - and it's never a good sign when the only two pictures are from 10' away and half the machine is covered by a tarp.

That lathe looks a tad ‘neglected’.
A decent machine that is looked after is cleaned occasionally !!
I think the ‘original chips’ are still in the tray.

Swing ?
Bed Length ?
Motor size ?
Electrics ?

I think someone is just scoping it out what they can get for it.
