Looks like a nice 806 example with a great lume shade, except for the rust on the case I guess

thats not rust but grime from wearing
I cant believe someone sells it like that without cleaning it up !

all in all a nice early example that should clean up nicely and will look great with new plexi
I would have liked to see a movement shot though
