Nice Find. I have heard that they are a pretty good machine. Didn't know they were still in business in 86

Must be a company that never expanded widely into the country. I have never seen one in my area other than a coupel of real old antique ones.

Only seen a couple older unstyled ones. Like Sam I think them had to be imported into Missouri so you never see one. Sure looks like a well build machine. Congrats

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
