Looks like an old Bellsaw Planer.  I had one I sold to a member years ago.

Congrats on your new purchase! Sounds like a solid find for $350. If there's no visible name or model number, maybe check for any distinctive features or markings. You could also try posting some pictures here, and the community might be able to help identify it. Happy planning!
