Not a XIII, but an early XIV. Very nice and part of the reason I like the XIII, because it resembles this beautiful machine.

Quoted from the listing, "A fine piece of history that tells a story!"
Maybe if we asked nicely, it could tell us where the motor, etc. went.

I'm not checking Craigslist very often these days because I'm afraid I'll end up buying something, but I saw this when it went up last weekend and briefly considered it as a possible restoration.
