You and me both mate, I'll love to own that baby. Shipping would add $80.00 on top of the winning bid.

Stupid question maybe but is it partially homemade, I just cant see why the need for two heads.

No it looks like a Wall Mft. Supply Co. N. 49. Super Dreadnaught Furnace.

Wall catalog 1925.

It was used to straighten automobile parts while in place  I'm thinking chassis, that one hell of a torch.
Buy it for me and I'm your friend for life.

Yes $427.00 

One sold for $4500.00 a few years ago, I've never seen one like it since. It was a Volcano Mfg. Co. torch.
