Well I texted a friend that lives nearby as I remembered that he had a nice bench lathe but I didn't recall what it was. Turns out he's planning to sell it so well timed. Going to see it on Friday.
I think it's defiitely a Clausing

I think they were called model 100 or something like that originally
Nice way of tucking it in against the wall

Yup 100 Mk3 apparently.
I know the fellow that owns it and he is meticulous with all his machines.
Going to look at it on Friday.
