Here is the one I am looking at right now. They are asking $700. It is flat belt drive, not exactally quick change. I ran it some when I was down there and it actually is really fast to change speeds. The other thing that amazed me is how similar it was to machines 75 years newer. This thing could thread and do everything a brand new machine could do. I restore old tractors and thought it would be pretty neat to restore this old lathe for use on the old tractors.

Here is some info on it.
