That Norton Surplus place is my favourite place in CA USA.
I have visited it several times and have brought some rocket hardware etc some from the Saturn V and Apollo programs.
I was like a kid in a candy store, they have some super cool stuff.
I can bring along the Historic Rocket hardware stuff that I have and give a talk about what else is there etc at the next Robot meeting if you like.

It is not a Lunar Descent motor but the Service Module main propulsion engine but it does not have the bottom half of the exhaust expansion bell so makes the thing look smaller.
My first question to the owner was "is it for sale" and Yes!!!
 

Regards
Graham
