Updated original post with pictures of mine. As you can see, it is in pretty good shape. Bar is straight, no mushrooming from being hammered on. The only bumps/dings I find are pictured on the slider/drive head and nearby on the bar. There is a little yellow paint on it in one spot. Overall, not a bad specimen to have survived the early 40's until now.
If you want it Derek, PM me about it. I'll cut you a killer deal on it. I don't need it and you did send me that nice little pile of Vlchek sweetness!! Oh yeah, I got that vise base ready to go, and found a hairline crack in it. I think it will still work, so it will be coming your way. You may have to do a weld repair on it at some point. None the less, it would still serve as a pattern if you need to have one machined.
Either way, PM me about the sliding T bar. I can consolidate everything into a bigger box and get it all out at once.
