Vintage table saw

Hello everyone. When I was walking my dog today I saw someone throwing out this old table saw. My guess is its from the 1940’s. It doesn’t have any motor and I’m not sure it has all the parts. I can’t find any brand on it or really anything other then what seems to be part numbers punched into each piece. I was wondering if anyone has anything like this, or has any info on vintage saws, and restoring vintage saws.

It looks like it might be a table saw that used an interchangable motor. That was a fairly popular thing to do back in the day

Thanks for the reply. Do you think its worth buying a motor and trying to restore it?

Buying, maybe but you can probably get a motor for free.
