Have had an Elliot sturdimill 1250 for a while now but it has never been installed - hope to do so soon.
It is in great condition with a vertical head and a slotting head.
When the machine was lifted with a hiab I was horrified to see they lifted it with a chain through the overarm. Everything looked nicely balanced etc but they should have used the proper lifting points.
The overarm is very stiff to move. Despite much oil and loosening off the bolts it needs quite a bit of whacking with a lump hammer to move(wooden block spacer). Is this normal or has it been damaged? Everything looks fine.
Also what are the chances of using this machine to bore out Rover V8 engine blocks to fit top hat liners?
