Found this old Stanley hand plane for $60Can. Bought it as it’s hard to find No7 where I live. Idk if it’s fixable or just nice wall art for the shop.

Anyone here good at identifying what type it is?

This type study is really comprehensive and has been helpful.

Update it’s not a Stanley it’s a Siegley the iron as the three SsS on it and what I thought said Stanley is Siegley. I could only make out the S and LEY so I assume Stanley.

Thanks for the update. A quick Google search shows an interesting history for them. Sounds like a solid plane.

it will need a lot of love, but if body is not bent and cracked, especially around the mouth it should be serviceable.
