Have you considered contacting any museums, collectors clubs or similar entities. The base machine appears to be a Kearney & Trecker model 3B. They were built as line shaft driven machines in the early 20th century. There are probably very few in existence outside museums.

It surely is a beast in that the original net weight was 6,600 lbs. Here's a link to an old K&T catalog. The 3B specs are on 55-57.


As an FYI there is a section of the Practical Machinist discussion forum that deals exclusively with antique machinery.

I would bet you could find someone there who would be interested in becoming the new owner of the complete machine, or at least refer you to someone who would.
 
Just to be clear, this is not my machine, and I have no connection to the seller.

I would surely think someone would be chomping at the bit for that Lagun head ??? That's too good to be in a junkyard .
