He said something broke in the gearbox and while he was tearing it apart he realized the main shaft in the tiller was bent, so he tor it apart with the intentions of fixing it, but bought another tiller instead. The 1A will probably be put up for sale soon.
If anyone has a clue as to why part of the #1 is painted red, I'd like to know. I can't find any sign of white paint on the red areas. I talked to Ray Weaver and he said he had never seen any tiller parts painted red.

From looking at the tag with the bolts a PO painted it red for what ever reason. Looks to be too dark to primer red.
Great score tho!
