I've lived on an acreage for a few years and I'm really starting to realize the need for a general purpose welder. My highschool had a great welding program and I took every course I could, but that's going back almost two decades now. While I have a bit of experience and I understand most of the concepts and terminology I would probably describe my skill level as rusty at best.
I've been watching local classifieds and I came across this Westinghouse unit that will be part of an estate auction at the end of April.

It's not available for advanced viewing so the only information I have is what can be gained from this picture. The only time I will get a chance to actually look at it as at the time of auction, and I doubt it will be plugged it in.
Is there anything specific I should look for in a situation like this? What's the most I should pay assuming I can't confirm it's working?
Thanks,
Rob A.
