Some clues to the age of your machine
1953-1960 machines were 2 tone green/cream (greenies)
early greenies had no inspection port access hole nor cutouts to see the gilmer belt. These were incorporated bit by bit over the first few years.

1960-67 Anniversary models were 2 tone copper/gold (brownies)
In mid 1962 they switched from gilmer to poly v drive and changed the motor from 3/4 hp to 1-1/8 hp. You may find a 1962 machine configured either way.

From 1972 on they have been gray. They have used several shades/textures over the years.
1985 changed to 2 bearing quill
Mid 1991 they went to the type C headstock casting with a larger inspection port opening and cover.
Early 1992 they started using the rectangular red safety switch and changed the location of the switch.

Motor types used over the years
The earliest motors on greenies were the 3/4 hp Franklin motor, very heavy duty, last forever.
https://adspowerful.weebly.com/three-days-grace-album-download-zip.html. Then they went to an AO Smith 3/4 hp motor, also very heavy duty like the Franklin.
Later greenies came the GE 3/4 hp motor with a reliable external capacitor and electronic run switch.
The GE “roundback” motors were used in the late 70’s and were 1-1/8 hp. They are prone to having cracked motor pigtail wires which can cause shorts, and also were a step back with an internal centrifugal switch which is prone to dust.
This is the motor I like best, the GE “boxback” 1-1/8 hp motor. it has an external capacitor and reliable external centrifugal switch which is quite dust proof.

Shopsmith offered and still sells 220 volt motors for the Mark V. Relatively rare, but I have seen several over the years. This one is a GE one.
Since the late 80’s, Shopsmith has used this Emerson 1-1/8 hp motor. lots of problems with it because of an internal centrifugal switch again, and an internal capacitor.
In the last few years I have seen them use an Emerson clone from a company called US Motors which I think I heard bought the Emerson brand.
