Tool Help

[apple320]

I hope that it is ok to post this here but I need some help.
This machine came to me that other day and I need some help in finding out just what it is.
So if you have seen anything like it please let me know.

Headstock

It has a collet on the headstock and the carriage has a hand wheel as well it slides real easy towards the headstock
There is no tail stock just a bunch of attachments on the carriage.
No marking of any kind but it is about 200lbs so it's solid.

Do you have a picture that shows the whole thing? Hard to make out what it is with a few close ups.

It looks like it may be reducing the OD, threading and drilling at the same time ...

Seems specific to a certain task.

I saw that for sale on Kijiji a few days ago!
Thought about calling the guy but never got round to it because i was not sure what it was!
His picture was not the greatest...

Looks pretty neat though!
To me it looks like a second operation lathe with rear mounted cut off tool??

Have fun wit it!

It looks like some type of jobbers lathe set up for one particular task and in this case, make short pieces of tube stock.

Maybe a metal lathe with a specific purpose. End drilling and milling diameter?? I see a whole lot of cheap bushings being made
