This is a headstock from a Rivett 608 serial number 361 which puts it as a 1935 machine. It is great shape. The bearings are smooth, the oilers both are there and work well, it has the reversing gear on it for the feed and it works perfectly. The back gear has both covers over the gears. The back gear engages just as it should and spins easily. The inside of the spindle is ground for a collett and still has the alignment tab in there to line up the collett. The underside has some wear, but you can still see some original scraping marks. Overall in great shape for being 87 years old. I don't know about shipping as it's pretty heavy, but I'm sure that could be worked out if needed. I would prefer local pickup. I am in Columbus Indiana, but can meet in Indy or Louisville if needed. Thanks!

I'll sell for $200.

Hello,
The head stock is still for sale. Are you wanting to pick it up or do you need it shipped? I'm in Columbus Indiana, about 45 minutes south of Indianapolis, or about an hour north of Louisville. I also have some other rivett parts for sale if you're interested in those as well.

For Sale - Rivett 608 front carriage and top part

If you're interested in either of those just let me know.
Thanks for the interest,
