I'm asking and calling on all the experienced and knowledgeable people to help me ID this bandsaw mill that I have acquired. I'm assuming it is an older model being that appear to some of the newer features I've seen. It has 2 sets of numbers on the pulley shaft housing: P208 & SST          I will post pictures if necessary and fiqure out how to route them here.

Definately gonna need photos. There is a tutorial availble for that. Just follow the rules. 
 Sounds like you've found casting numbers. We'll need a lot more than that. At least a detailed description and paint colors, optins, etc.

Yes, definitely need pictures. P208 is just one of many standard PB bearing casting sizes that will be cast into the housing, and SST is just another standard bearing supplier that casts their 'SST' badge into the standard-sized housings they sell. Though if all you need is the bearing, that can be sourced anywhere - doesn't have to be SST - just get a 208 PB bearing with the correct bearing insert for your shaft size.

I've included a couple of pictures of this mill in my gallery

Looks to be homemade mill. But may saw logs into lumber just fine.

Read the rules of the forum, which state you need to put your gallery pics in your post, not "point" to the gallery.

Easy to put your pics in posts by copying the code under your pic and pasting it in your post. I've done that with one of your pics here.

oops me too.  you need to open the FF in another window.  like clicking the + sign on the side bar and open it and go to the gallery, then your gallery.  click and select the pic you want.  scroll down below the pic, and right click and select the BBC (normal), and then copy it.  go back to the other first window.  with a reply open (the first one you opened) then paste the url BBC (normal) you copied into the space.  it will go wherever the cursor is.  you can hit return to move the cursor down for a space between the pics.
