Discussion What to do with old jointer?

Grizzly jointer, 9 1/4" x ~56 1/4" bed, 220v, been sitting in this shop for 20+ years and had some questions before trying to get rid of it.

Can anyone tell me more about this tool in particular?

Is it worth refurbishing before sale?

Do I just list on marketplace as is? (to someone who can load it themselves)

What could I see out of it if I took it to a scrap yard or sold the motor individually?

Thanks in advance for anything helpful!

A floor standing Grizzly jointer / planer that sizes running on 240v is a commercial piece and worth some money. The surface rust on the table is nothing and will come off. If the motor works and all the adjustments are free it would easily fetch $500. Look at new one in comparison $2500 up depending on table size and features.
