Lathe Question

Another lathe question. I got a chance to get an old wood lathe. Any chance I can put a metal tool post on this? I'm not even sure what the chuck looks like, just a glance at a garage pic prior to an estate sale. Guy was a wooden furniture repairman. I'm also looking at getting his old floor standing drill press and maybe a 10T press.even his 71 Ford pickup will be sold. No prices set yet but estate seller gets 40% so if I can slide in prior to that I can save 40% off asking price with no discout toward the seller.
