    Newbie Lathe Value Question

    Hi I'm a new guy to Mills and Lathes(kinda) I just picked up a Never been used 1979 Bridgeport Series II Mill and (not sure on year) Turnmaster 17X80 lathe. The Lathe is way to big for what i need. I was just wondering if anybody could give me an estimated value of this lathe? It has not been used in some time but has been coated in that spray grease(can't remember what its called).
    Feautres
    -16 speed gear head
    -3 1/6" spindle hole
    -10hp main motor
    -Camlock spindle nose
    -Head stock w/ pressure lubrication(not oil bath)
    -Disc Clutch for forward/reverse
    -Double and independent Control for longitudinal and cross feed
    -Carriage feed reverse from the Apron
    -Pressure Lubrication for carriage and cross slide
    -foot brake
    -inch/metric threading capacity

    Here are a few pics

    You should be able to get a Blue Book value on this. Looks like a very nice machine, big but nice.
    Make sure you clean my wrench before you put it back into my toolbox.
