Hi,

I sold my Speed Graphic a few years ago, and regret it! So now I'm looking for a Pacemaker Speed Graphic 4x5 with Kalart rangefinder and Graflok back.

The camera doesn't need to have a lens.

Thanks,
Trond

I don't usually sell on forums but I'm taking a break from eBay for awhile. Do you care about cosmetic condition?

Okay, do you prefer a pretty one for more money or an ugly one for less money? I assume you need the slip-on viewfinder... do you need a mask? I assume you need infinity stops... how many? I assume you know the shipping cost will be painful.

Ugly one for less money is fine, but give me a price for a pretty one too! Yes, I need a viewfinder as well, a mask suitable for a 150mm lens and two infinity stops. I'm aware shipping is costly, but the cheapest possible shipping is fine.

It's raining now and power is fluctuating... shutting down until storm passes.

I found three bodies to evaluate. I'm a bit slow at the moment so will have a close look at them in an hour or two.

Power was out again for awhile. I promise I'll post descriptions by noon Thursday, Central Time.

Hey, if you are still looking I have a nice Crown Graphic with viewfinder and rangefinder body only $250.
See my ad on APUG for more details.
Thanks,
John

Hi Benito, yes I'll sell one to you. I just need to conclude things with Trond first.

Sorry to jump in but if you have anymore large format cameras would you be willing to swop one for two cameras. A 4x5 zero pinhole with two extra extensions and a Polaroid 680 with new yellow skin. Both in great condition and fully working.

Trond, sorry but I've been busy here dealing with some things... drove a 500 mile round trip yesterday to retrieve my stolen vehicle. My left arm is better today so I'll take a close look at the cameras here.

Sorry for the off-topic: good to hear you got your truck back, ONF. I hope it's in good shape.

Hi,
The camera is not sold yet but I have 2 people ahead of you that are interested, so if those deals don't go thru I'll let you know in a couple days. Mine is a Crown Graphic the Speed Graphic you were previously interested in has an old fashioned focal plane shutter in the back but the crown is for lenses with leaf shutters. See mylisting on APUG for more info on the one I have up for sale.
Thanks,
John
