From what I’ve read on here it’s a Williams dump. It’s been parked for 38 years so needs about everything. After reading some very interesting articles on here I feel at home. I worked evenings at a small garage at age 15. I built my first race car while there, a ‘65 big block 4-speed Chevelle. My last 30 years were spent working for Boeing as a CNC machine maintenance technician.

I have been a manual Machinist since I was 16. Then got into Maintenance Machining at about 30 years old.
Check in with the Heartland Stovebolters every once in a while, there are plenty of us.
