Funny enough an antique thrift store in omaha Nebraska had two of these just like the ebay ad for sale for a long time. Too big for me to take in at the time

Hah I have that same Zenith console radio shown in the second Picture

Amazing. One thing that stands out on my machines are the worn handles I wish I could find a solution for

Beautiful. I should clean up my 63s and 29. What was your hood polish method?

I see you're from omaha. Too bad we've never crossed paths. I lived there my whole life but moved to Vegas in 2019

Nice find. I have two model 63s. Great vacuums and so quiet. I think a model 61 belt fits. A convertible belt is too small

Sure looks a lot nicer than my wireless vacuette I had some years ago. I left it with a vacuum restoration shop and forgot about it lol. Wonder how it turned out.

Yes I've got about 40 or 50 rolls included! Hope to get it working soon Took the top off to inspect player. Have some tubes I need to replace to get it to function fully again

Quick wipe down before and after shots. Got some internal stuff to sort before it's playing.

No muscle cars. I asked if the guy ever liked sports cars and what not. Nope. Only ever big luxury cars.. The 41 Cadillacs are all 8 cylinders. The earlier Cadillacs he has all come in 8,12 and 16 cylinders

Also for fun. Checked out these 3 1941 Cadillacs that just got taken outside. There are a total of 39 1941 Cadillacs here in the collection. These three are for sale.

Got a battery in. The air suspension raised up thankfully. Sadly that lead us to the discovery that someone had stolen the catalytic converters off the car. Loaded up on trailer and taken to my partners shop for further work

Well that was a thing haha. 650 pounds of lifting later... The organ is home. Just barely made it through my 35" doorway.. Awaiting power cord and oil from ebay to arrive.

Agreed. A travesty to cut up the organ. Only the console survives sadly. But the curator built a magnificent spec instrument superior to that of the original using Barton, Morton, wurlitzer, Kimball and wicks theatre pipe work Here's a good video demo of each instrument. Lots of videos out...

I love it. Best compact design. Such an excellent vacuum too. I'm glad to have grown up around many of these just like it.

Here are some of his other magnificent organs. The gargantuan 6 manual Barton console is hooked up to a full 51 ranks of pipes and the huge red 5 manual Kimball console is at its full 27 ranks The Barton is the largest theatre organ console ever built. It narrowly escaped a massive fire and...

In addition to that Lincoln mark viii we picked up, I had originally gone to see this organ. It is a 1939 aeolian-Hammond BA player organ with an equally rare cx20 tone cabinet. It will be in my living room tomorrow! They made just about 200 of these and only about 12 are known to exist...

Thanks for the advise all!! Luckily my partner is a master mechanic with all the tools available to service everything possible. It's being towed to his shop for service. Hes quite confident after refurbishing many many cars which have sat for double the time that he can get it running no issues...

A few of the other cars

Well went to look at some Hammond organs and that turned into an amazing outing at a famous Vegas estate of cars and pipe organs. In the mix of things we saw this neglected old Lincoln mark viii lsc sitting on the ground with its sad aired out suspension Well made an offer and it's ours for...
