It's a Vixen Super Polaris which preceded the Vixen Great Polaris - should be a good quality little mount.

Thanks for that, could it hold a 8" newt on it and take some pics with a webcam ?

An 8" newt is pushing it I reckon.

The tube looks like an r130 with the sliding rack focuser. There were. Great scope. Forget the 8" & just use the OTA you have

Thanks Daniel for the advice i think the 8 would push it to hard after reading about the mount i will stick with the R150 tube it has.
