Need some help please

I have a drill press made by chrysler machine. The model number is BDP50-50
and the serial number appears to be 038. The tag says it is a division of
GRG Corp. I've tried google and no luck so far. Can anybody steer me in
the right direction on who made this drill press? Would appreciate the
help. Thanks!

Wasn't the Coronet a Dodge, rather than a de-lightful, de-lovely. De Soto?

About the time I had mastered getting the toothpaste back in the tube, then
they come up with this striped stuff.

Dad had a DeSoto Adventurer and I loved it because the auto tranny was
shifted with a pushbutton - we called it "three on the dash!"

What do you need for the drill press? I can't help you find the original
manufacturer but I can possibly put you in touch with someone who can help
you depending on your need.

Is it a Dodge or a Plymouth?

Yep. I had a 64 Chrysler 300 with the same type of shift and
it was nifty. Didn't like the rest of the car though, ride
was too harsh with terrible traction when starting and
stopping in snowy/icy conditions. Oddly, it ran like it was
on rails after it got going in dry or snowy condition.

Yep, Coronet was Dodge. And quit making fun of De Soto; that
was my first car. A 1953 for $50 in 1962 in Seattle. Not
nearly as good as the two 193? Dodges that a friend bought
in New Haven,CN in 1958 for $125. Been on blocks with the
engine run periodically. Damn, they were pristine.

If he can't find information it is probably a DeSoto. See if the
nameplate says: Fire Dome or Coronet.
