I am not sure if anyone here would be interested, but this sink was linked on another forum. I think it's a laundry sink, and sounds like it's in great shape. The owner is willing to ship via Greyhound.

That is a suds tub. Sears sold these to be used with suds-saver machines. I saw one of these this past summer at an estate sale with the original cover. There is a small door in front at the bottom that slides up to reveal a storage compartment. This type of sink is still available from E.L. Mustee of Brook Park, OH.
OH NO! According to the specs, it no longer includes the plastic pipe that sealed into the drain hole for the rinse hose/overflow. An era is ended. Woe is we.

Tom,
Scroll down and you'll see that the overflow pipe is available as an accessory.

But it used to be sold as a part of the tub because the appeal of the tub was to enable you to have the ability to use a suds saver in a much smaller space, admittedly not such a draw today. I was in a plumbing supply store maybe 20 years ago when a young woman appeared with this part that came with the sink that had just been installed, wondering what it did, saying that she did not need it and could she return it for a refund. Her attitude caused the service counter to freeze over like those scenes in Day After Tomorrow as they thought of where she could install it.
