The Heavy Duty Pro (390R is the code I think) tripod is a huge piece of kit - had the opportunity to A/B a vintage example directly against an old Gitzo aluminium Series 5 tripod a few months ago. Ended up going for the Gitzo as the legs seemed to 'ring' much less than the Linhof (which was beautifully made and terrifyingly heavy - though not sure if the tartan bag it came with was original).
Easy to hunt as they can't run fast...

I almost had the smaller Linhof tri-corner stand, but it was in Canada and too expensive for what it was, no shipping too
I have all the 50's Linhof gear I need
Here is some of it, the Linhof case holds that 5X7, the period Kodak lens has a Packard shutter inside the Linhof lensboard, usable with 4X5, 5x7 and 8X10 Linhof backs
I have zero interest in handheld Linhof
The 8X10 Linhof is so heavy I have to take it apart bit by bit
