Skywatcher EQ2 Mount/Tripod with Single Axis (RA) Drive

This is my well-travelled solar eclipse observing rig -ideal as a grab & go.
I bought this new, and is only up for sale because of a recent AZ4 purchase.
Very clean and generally unmarked.
A few superficial small dents on the tripod legs.
One small screw missing on a tripod leg spreader bracket.
Comes with RA motor drive, which runs on 4 ‘D’ size batteries.
The motor unit power plug has some surface corrosion, as does the battery pack contact.
All recently tested and works ok.
Boltdown dimensions on the mounting plates are at approx 60mm and 140mm centres.
I've always attached my ‘scopes directly to the mount, but there’s a ¼”-20 adapter available here:

Inspection welcome.
Higher resolution photos available.
Pickup available at Mordialloc.
Can deliver to CBD, eastern, south/eastern and bayside Melbourne.
$170 or near offer.
