the guy in the description says that one of the louvers is broken, i didn't see it either but it's in his description..
original is original , broken louvre or not it's still a darn nice machine,,, would be fun to have.. last one I heard sell for near me went for 5500 so I'd say at least that.. but not sure what reserve is?

I know Jack Rudbeck will go 5k at least for it, and the said part is he will restore it.

WHY restore something that nice?   Oo 

There aren't very many nice ORIGINAL machines out there.  When they look that good, they should be left alone (in my humble opinion).  When they are all done up perfect, they almost look fake to me.  Something 50-60 years old should have a couple character marks.  Now, when you find a rusted/abused machine, sure...restore the heck out of it!

Just my cent-and-a-half...
