£1000 for a heap of rust. myfords are very overrated. I used one like many others at collage and tech back in the 70,s. and when I went into model engineering purchased a myford because that was the lathe I knew. had a go on a mates Colchester bantam and the myford was gone the same week. o and my super 7 was like new and I sold it for £780 3 years back, the bantam also like new with power slides was £550 and worth it and more, a total joy to use and parting off is now a thing of joy.

Ah, you have to know what you're looking for and check regularly, searching intelligently, I've had some real engineering bargains in the last few months ;-)
