Victor "P" machine on Ebay...

Post by fmblizz »

It appears the the Ebay seller NEELAN is still tearing machines apart and selling them piece-meal.

If anyone is interested in building a Victor "P" here are most of the needed parts.

Victor "P" support bracket bolts

Give it a couple days and I'm sure the horn, crank, reproducer and elbow will show up...
The nameplate will probably cost and arm & leg though.

Yes he's also got a very nice long case Edison Home spread across several auctions. It had one of those interesting cranes that is solidly mounted to the back side of the case. He's of course dismantled that and is selling it separately too, leaving the empty case with four holes on the back where it was mounted.

Why do those guys wreck complete, or restorable
machines?

I just can't see being so hard-up to make a few
greedy bucks, that decent machines need to
be wrecked this way.

I think it's something more...a power trip, perhaps. :pig:

The simple answer is: these guys are A..holes. Nobody under any circumstances should sell machines to them or buy from them...
