Machinists and shop equipment dealers target these for parts harvesting, restoration projects, or resale to hobbyists if the core mechanics can be brought back. Verify spindle bore, bed straightness, and what exactly makes it inoperable before committing, since you'll need 24 hour advance notice for inspection and ten business days for removal.
