I got caught up in the frenzy and brought home a Lotus treadle this afternoon. It has been stored and apparently was in a house with smokers before that. I have a big cleaning job ahead for myself. No attachments, and a rough cabinet with a missing drawer pull, but the decals look pretty good. I traveled 35 miles there and spent $35 on it. When I checked later, there was another lotus on CL for $150, so I feel a little vindicated!
Now I need to find a place to put it in the house! Why didn't I think of that before I went "looking"?
