I'm up in Kamloops but even at the cost of gas
(about $120 tghere and back) 
I'm tempted to go down and pick >it up if it has
not already happened.
Failing that, There's a fantastic place at 304 Victoria drive that
 will accept the machine if you can't find a home
for it. I can vet for them 
as their specialty is older
 machines. 
Oh butts, that was to be emailed to him directly. Sorry guys. >_>'
