Not surprising. I agree with your previous comment that the market for large machines can be local. This will be a fun project for someone to "bring back to life" with a lot of the "work" already started.

I am glad to know some took it. It is fun to restore those historical machine. It is just a wonderful hobby you can enjoy.

I remember that oak VTLA when it first showed up! It was a worthy project!

It's one of the few projects my wife approves of (sits in a place of honor in our dining room).
