I posted this in the main forum but dont know how to move it. Im a novice with a lead on 2 GC1's. In our phone conversation with the buyer he stated one as good and one as very good. One is set up and one is disassembled. below is the one set up. I can get these real cheap, just wondering ways to identify models and anything to look for in condition that would suggest to pass on them. I have had a few helpful responses with other post but one suggested asking in this section. Any help and feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I forgot, the disassembled table has the ashtray castings and the one in the pic has the bronze colored corners. He put them on and doesnt have the original ones to the table.
 
Every cosmetic part of those tables is within the realms of a fair DIYer to restore except for the formica on top of the rails. If that's damaged it complicates life. Nice formica=nice table IMO.
 
looks clean enough from pics. check frame for all pieces/parts, cracks etc. Slates for warps and breaks. check to see how well rails set on slate around table.big shadows and gaps under edges of rails- or crisp and clean. the only things I really look at first- everything else is quick and easy.
