Show us your South Bend Lathe

[Superburban]

Here is my new to me 55 vintage 16" has both 4 & 3 jaw chucks, full set of 5c collets and collet accessories, and with a tray that can be mounted above the head stock, or tail stock. Most of a 4 way tool post, and most of a steady rest. Has noticeable wear on the ways, but nothing that will affect my use.

I'd love to convert my 1938 model b to a model a with the quick change gears. Is it an easy conversion ? Where would I go about looking for the gear box?

Tried for a dramatic presentation of my 1941 Tool Room Lathe. She is my pride and joy.
