Lathe and tire machine opinions

I'm really, really interested in the lathe. That is a downer with the newer cars rotors not generally being turnable. But does make sense, as nowadays they manufacture stuff to be disposable after limited use. But with the number of A-body cars we part out, I could start stockpiling drums to turn if they have enough material left on them. The entire setup in the pic is for the $500, that would be awesome to be able to turn drums, rotors and flywheels. I think it's probably a no-brainer, I am going to have to get the lot of equipment. Better take my trailer up there and get the lathes and tire machine. I figure the lathe will get the vast majority of its use for just our projects, but that's okay with me.
