My search for a lathe has ended.
I found a 1973 South Bend 10K with a 3.5 ft bed in virtually unused condition.
Not a lot of tooling but I’m very stoked about the condition.

Thanks @Johnwa, it was a real find to be sure.
I was going to pay the same for a 4.5’ version that needed help.
I think I found a real beauty!

it is as good as it gets. The only better one I've seen is the one sold through here that was owned by Bert. It was in like-new condition. No one on the forum has owned up to buying it, and I have the spare parts for it, and can't seem to find them to give them the parts.
 
NICE snag!!! 3.5' bed would put it the same class as my 9 X 22 Utilathe. You're gonna love it.

What did it set you back, if you don't mind sharing?

I paid $1250. I’m paying ferry fares from the owner to bring it to Victoria from Vancouver.

I was fine to go get it but he was coming here anyway.

What all did you get with it? I see a drive plate and a 3 Jaw chuck with extra jaws. Steady rest? 4 Jaw chuck? What size is the motor? Looks to be in very good condition.
 
Sadly no steadyrest or 4-jaw chuck

That looks to be a pretty substantial table you have it on. In to wood working are we?
 
It actually comes with the table.
But I’m a woodworker also :)
