Default old FE Reed lathe FS in Houston

Old F.E. Reed lathe for sale in Houston.
circa 1898. If I remember correctly it has about an 8 ft bed. It has an
extra set of legs in the middle to help support it.
It is sitting in my dads driveway.
Ive decided I will never do anything with it.
I bought it from a widow of a retired machinist. He was using it to shorten
driveshafts.
I am wanting 150.00 for it . Otherwise next time I get to houston it goes to
the scrapyard
