    A friend of my mother is cleaning out her fathers’ barn and i got this Pro Mac 55.
    Looks to have low run time but compression is low, 120 or so. I can see scratches on the cylinder wall through the plug hole.
    Cool looking machine but I’m not sure what I’ll do with it.
    Any Mac fans out there with a suggestion ?

    Clean it up, maybe see if you can get it running, & add it to the herd. Even if it just has too sit on a shelf and look pretty.

    Keep it for a noise maker. They have an awesome sound to them.
