I will throw in an Ilex 6.5 in f4.5 lens in an Ilex No 3 shutter (as is with problems).
I will also include two lens boards for the Wisner.

Sale $1250 plus $35 shipping to 48 states.

Thanks
When I sold Wisner in Canada some 35 years ago the Technical was the cream of the 4x5 crop. Later I sold mine to a photographer here,
and regret it really. When I visited the factory I realized there was very little automation in making those cameras, they were truly hand built. Ron Wisner built a simpler version for Fred Picker, the earliest Zone V1s, But Fred wanted more profit so started selling a Wista version. Ron's knowledge of lens design and LF optics would be hard to find today.
