Just got back from installin this baby down in Baton Rouge.

This particular machine was a Katrina victim that arrived at our shop in Texas with 9 gallons of water in the gear box and had been standing in 18-24" of water after the roof was blown off the shop it was in eye popping smiley

I totally disassembled it, cleaned it all up, reworked a few sub assemblies, installed a new motor and electrical control box (<- both had been underwater which is bad mojo for electrics !), replaced all the lil shit that goes missing over time on one of these machines, performed the usual rebuild operations required on a vintage 1969 Heidelberg press and it's ready to go another 50 yrs or so smileys with beer
