Welcome to the forum!

Bravo, that's a great find and good price for unmolested, un-converted, and 90% finish 455.

Triple 1st Model or 2nd Model??? With a serial # or partial # we can provide which variation it is and likely a shipping date.

We love to see pictures if you can post them, or the link to the GB auction photos is allowed now that the auction has ended.

The first thing I'd recommend is flood the action and cyl arbor with gun cleaning spray to flush out the 100 year old dry grease and re-oil with modern lubricant.

Shoot and enjoy!
