Herbert 2D 6 turret lathe with pegboard control and hydraulics

[JaviPK7]

Hi all,

thought I'd share with you this relic from a different era..

I work with a machine shop that has a 1970 Turret lathe, Herbert, Model 2D, 6-turret, with peg board control, bar feed and hydraulics feed. This pegboard must be one of the early forms of CNC, the pegs are resistors that allow you to program a sequence, it's so old school that I tell this guy this should be in a museum!

He uses it sometimes, works all right though it could use some hydraulics servicing and general tidying up. Do you guys think it's worth updating it? Does it have any value as it is?
