What kind of lathe did I buy?

So bought this lathe today. It's small and old.

 

An old one, do you have an electric motor to go with it??

 

Got a complete picture? I only see the headstock area?

 

looks like a iddy biddy lathe ......I think it's for rebuilding armatures on starters and generators

 

Nope no motor, I gotta pick one up. I paid a whopping $2.50 for it at an estate sale today so I figure worse case I have a really cool tool for the shelf.

Tman,

I fixed the pics for ya.

the
chuck is 4 in, the overall length is 18 in. the distance from the chuck to the centering pin deal is about 9-10 with it adjusted all the way out.

 

By the looks of the tool holder it looks european. The size is a bit big for a watch makers lathe. Look around this site http://www.lathes.co.uk/ an see if you can find it. You might also post here http://bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/ to ask your question.

WOW, What a find!!!!

I would like to have it just for a conversation piece for my shop.
