At least you've got a machine to fix, so many guys out there are trying to find shapers and even considering building from scratch, fixing these machines is a whole lot more efficient that trying to build one and invariably you will end up with a better tool at the end, the big leap is always that first step and then deciding where to stop, that is full restoration or just fix the faults that are preventing use.
I know how daunting it can be starting a big repair but unless you give it a go ...

and we do have a great resource here with so many experienced machine repairers.
