Might be a 9" 'C' model, or an even older version. Parts are common enough for the 9", but not so much for the earlier versions. Only power longitudinal feed via the half nuts with no provision for power crossfeed. Change gear lathe anyway with no pile of gears that you will need to change feed and speed. Looks like its sat in a chicken coop with a bad roof for decades. I'd pass.
