Hey George. I've got a couple Stanley #7's I could part with. It's just my opinion, but people can get themselves into a lot of trouble with bevel up planes. There is nothing a well sharpened bevel down plane won't do, including end grain. Conversely, a bevel up plane will reak havoc in the wrong application. Again, this is just my opinion.
If you're interested in an older Stanley, let me know how much work you want to do to it and I'll match that with what I've got.

George, I have a Clifton #7 that's new that I'd be willing to sell. In fact I was going to list it here in the coming days. Send me a PM if you're interested.
