I bought this little 1948 vintage Bridgeport a few months ago. Terrible paint in multiple layers, rusty and crud everywhere, worn spindle, bad bearings, but basically complete. I took it apart, scraped paint and rust, replaced bearings, repaired the splines, and repainted it. I just got it back together today and looking for the next project.
