LOGAN metal lathe 14 X36 ",W TAPER - $2400 (Sacramento, CA)

Not sure if that lathe is really 36" between centers (unlikely), but it sure looks nice at that price!

My thoughts exactly. I wouldn't mind have something with a swing bigger than 10". Looks like that might be a CXA toolpost too.
 
Looks like that puppy was sitting in a 'Model' shop most of it's life.

Seller is a machinery dealer, claims it came from a trade school. From that, I would expect idiot tracks close to the chuck and on the carriage.

So much for my assumption, -hehe.
Didn't appear to be a bunch of wear marks by the selectors.

Maybe it was their "good" lathe that only advanced students were allowed to use.

I'm guessing here, but I wager I would not kick it out of my shop if it were to appear magically.
 
If it had a steady rest included I would sure be interested- I heard the accessories for the 14" are pretty hard to find
