I'm hoping to find someone who appreciates the quality of the old
metal tools to give $50 for it.
Have a Black and Decker workwheel in like new condition too - going
to see if I can get $25 for it.

That's going to be a hard sale. Its a great saw. A new similar model
Skil made out of plastic is going to run $40 to $70 depending on the
model. Most folks will just see that its old. Not that its in great
condition.
I think my dad has one very similar that's still good. He bought his in
1969 or 1970 I think to build our family grocery store. I used it when
I was working for the phone company in 1987 or 1988.
I'd love to have one, but I have A nice Ryobi,a cheap Ryobi, and a Skill
Worm Drive. Each one setup for a different job.
