FS: Bridgeport mill Colchester lathe Van Norman boring bar

Just testing the water with this lot for now.
Would anyone be interested in a Bridgeport, Adcock and Shipley, milling machine with what I think is an alloy J head and a Mitutoyo DRO and traverse motor.
Also a large head skimming cutter and selection of tools and clamps.
A Colchester lathe. Not sure on model, but its a large one.
And a Van Norman boring bar.
Ideal set up for traditional engine shop.
Bought a few years ago with the intention of doing engine work as a side line, but no time to dedicate to it so we think its time to move them on.
These belong to my father, they are situated in his workshop all wired in (3 phase) but a new business project means that he may want or have to move these on.
They are situated near Spalding, South Lincs, PE11 post code area.

We know what these are worth and he paid quite an amount for all of it. He won't be letting these go for a few hundred pounds.

If anyone is genuinely interested then get in contact with an offer.
You would need to sort out moving arrangements.
Thanks.

diameter and depth would be handy

not for me, but a mate of mine could be interested





I'd love to give my imaginary friend a great big hug,

but this jacket makes it impossible.

Will find out as much as I can and let you know.

Would love the Lathe and live in Spalding so would be ideal but suspect it would be a bit too large for my garage. Do you do lathe work for other people at all?

We were planning on offering lathe and mill work along with engine work, but never happened so really just looking to move it all on and use the cash to fund new project
