Help me identify this Hardinge lathe please. It was advertised as a DV59. No-one else bid on it, so I got it for $50.00. It came with a pretty new GE severe duty 1hp motor and a nice tailstock. However the tailstock fits a different type bed. I attached several photos. The only identifying marking is the number 59-18252 on the back side of the headstock. I'll need to buy a tailstock and a tooling slide for sure. Anybody have them for sale or interested in trading the correct tailstock for the one I have, please let me know. Thanks, Mark L.

Wow $50! And I Love the baseball handle attachment.
I know this is an old thread, but thought I'd chime in. That's a Hardinge TR-59 split bed lathe, serial number 18252. The '59' means 5C collet with 9 inch swing over the bed. Good luck finding the cross slide, they are available online but hideously expensive.
