Ya did good. That lathe looks like it's in pretty good shape, as far as I can see.
I've had Atlas lathes and they were not bad. But I prefer the my South Bend 9C and 9A.
Grizzly sells chuck keys for a reasonable price.
Now that you have an SB 9A you can probably make the parts that you need for your draw bar.
Seriously, you seem to have gotten a good deal.
PS If you want to give yourself a cheap thrill, use a little Brasso on that plate. I'll bet that if you do, you'll look at it and think "Nice...".
