The thinning of the herd continues...
My lovely Celestron Celestar 8. In pristine condition. Starbright coatings and corrector plate neat as a pin.
Tracks very well. Mount uses either a 9V battery or can run off 12V with a cord (cigarette cord not included, but I'll throw in a 9V battery).
Comes with the following:
* 6X30 finder (the finder does have a little of its paint damaged)
* 1.25" visual back
* 1.25" diagonal
* Wedgepod - tripod and wedge all in one
* Secondary mirror has Bob's Knobs
* Original instruction manual
* Bullseye spirit level
* Handset - as is, handset controls RA and the North and South selection. Dec motors are available from JMI -

Front lens cover locks in place, not the flimsy push on type.
Has original boxes, both for scope (double boxed) and wedgepod, so I can ship! Shipping not included in price. Or pick up from Maroubra in Sydney's east.
I can include a plossl eyepiece or two if needed.
Asking $900 - SOLD
