Myford ML7 Bed anyone????

[GRW]

This just popped upon my Marketplace (see pic below). I know nowt about Lathes, but I've seen the Myford ML7 mentioned quite a bit on here, so:

From the other pics in the Ad, it looks pretty mint (to my untrained eye at least). Very clean.

I’m half tempted to buy it then grind it and then sell it

Could've been worse. You might have said "where sheep live in fear of".....
(We're used to a regular supply of Sheep S***ger jibes & innuendo round these parts )

Anyone remember The Mac Lads from way back when? (Mac as in Macclesfield). Purveyors of dodgy ditties that'd have the modern world's collective toes curling up.
They had a song entitled "Sheep S***gers".
I recall the line
"All the girls go out wearing a sheepskin coat - they know they've got to wear a Woolly if they're gonna pull a bloke"
