Updated by Graham Hatley, the builder.
I purchased this organ recently and have moved it to my warehouse near Charlotte, North Carolina. Its condition seems extremely good and for the most part complete with the exception of a few windchests and blower that were thrown out by the person who removed the organ. I currently plan to restore the organ to its original condition but may change some of the ranks to give the organ a bit more variety.
