http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.vi ... 1226495810 Description says its incomplete. What all is missing? Anything major besides the horn and reproducer? Is $1,999.99 a decent price if nothing major is missing and it just needs a horn and a reproducer?

It's missing the coin chute, horn support post and horn, reproducer and elbow, along with the tube to connect the horn. I am not an expert, but the incomplete crank doesn't look right either...

Just looked at it quickly, but it's also missing the coin box and the oak sign frame in addition to the parts Curt pointed out. The coin box, horn post, coin chute and sign frame will likely have to be made. Originals--if you can even find them--would be pricey. There's a lot of money to put into this machine as it sits. Price seems quite high given it's condition. Just my 2 cents.

It would work as a Columbia B with a nice oak case... but the price is too high for that.

This seller is known for parting out machines. He has been around the block a few times and if he had access to any of the missing parts, you can be sure he would have put the machine back together.
