I bought the contents of my neighbor garage as he was a retired Lincoln-Mercury mechanic. This workstation was what I wanted most and today I spent the day sorting and loading items. I have no idea how we're going to load it on the trailer, does it come apart into smaller pieces?

Lincoln is less than three miles from where I live.

I have a great deal of Lincoln literature, but it is not in any order, meaning I have to go through all of it to even identify the unit you have purchased, I will do this if you are genuinely interested in purchasing the literature.

I've been so focused on sign hunting for this hobby that I never even knew about things like these workstations. This is neat! Thanks for sharing!

I have no idea on what model this is, but if you go through the trouble of locating any literature yes I'll pay for it.

Thank you

Any member have experience using dry ice blasting or 'dustless' media to remove paint on a resto project?

To be sure before I start going through a 15" tall stack of literature, does it say Lincoln Engineering or are you using the Lincoln from the fact the garage was a Lincoln/Mercury dealership?
