new to me Bridgeport Series 1w/boss3, bunch of questions....

It's an older 1977 model and seems to work okay (still at the
original shop and not at home yet), I am looking forward to playing
with this machine and making chips, it's many, many times bigger and
badder than my 3-n-1 Shoptask for sure!!!!!!


Questions:
Where can I find information on what stepper motors should be
installed?

Should I change out the Boss 3 controller and run the original motors
using a PC and Gecko's or is there a way I can run the machine from a
PC utilizing the stock electronics?

Sooner or later I would like to change it over to a Servo CNC since I
have a Camtronics(?) powersupply and Gecko's for my 3-n-1 mill/lathe.

Should I be able to use my existing power supply and Gecko's??

thanks,
