       It's the smaller 7" one.  The wider one is the 79a.

For anyone who is not familiar with Wilton vises they are an excellent heavy duty vise.  I have the 10" model and I especially like the pivoting face.  However, the pivoting face can be removed in seconds if you want a rigid jaw.

      I don't use the pivot jaw on the vice I use. I'm not even sure where it is now... Unfortunately these vices are as hard to sell as Ford parts...

$50 before it hits the scrap pile since it seems these vices have no value or demand?

Can this vise be used as a standard bench vise? Mine just broke.

I'm quite sure that they have value - to anyone building a budget bench. It will just take a while to find that someone.
Thanks,  Curt
