Looks really good with an electric machine on top, combining new with old."

I have a couple broken plastic wonders that might do it justice... 3 strikes and they are out... :p

Where's the Crank? "Some oxidation" ??? The rest of the text in the ad is a strange way to sell something.

good grief - I wonder what a good offer would be on one of those? I have 3 to get rid of - I highly doubt if anybody will spend $500 no matter how good shape...

"BUT I HAVE TO ADMIT IT HAS BEEN MANY TEARS SINCE I USED IT."

Those "tears" must have fallen right onto and all over the machine.
