Default antenna tower help

I have an antenna tower that I have no info about. Can someone help me
ID it.

It's a 4 leg tower make of steel with zigzag cross bracing. I have 65'
of tower.

I need to know if it's a self supporting tower or if it needs supports.

here are images.

Not too sure about this one either! All I get is:-

I wouldn't put that up until I had it sandblasted & inspected
for RUST. Remember - if you put it up and it falls (which in
this case looks likely), YOU are liable!

To answer your original question on weather it's self supporting
I wouldn't trust it. It looks like a 4 sided Rohn and that's not
good.

To put it plainly, I wouldn't put that up unless I had it inspected
and paid an engeneer to evaluate it. In other words, I'd rather
spend tha same $$$ on a new tower.
