I have a South Bend heavy 10 tool room lathe that I am going to sell and I am trying to get some information on it.It is cat # 8187AN. The number on the ways is 154302. Also the letters J.A.N and L.Q.R. The base cabinet has 6 drawers instead of 3 and 2 doors.I have only found 1 other picture of a lathe with that base.It has all the original additions to the basic lathe and lots of tooling. any information would be appreciated.Thanks
 
Gee, your pictures are too small to see. I guess that we'll have to resort to mind reading.

The J.A.N. designates a military purchased lathe. L.Q.R is the initials of a government inspector at the SB plant during the war. The rest we'll have to wait for the mind readers to chime in.
 
Thank you.I don't know how to post pictures but my son is going to help me when he comes by.Thanks again
