Beautiful machine. I used to have one many years ago but I do recall it having a cover over the belt. Odd to see yours without one 

I just want to find a house here in Vegas that has carpet. Every home ive ever looked at or been in has no carpet at all. They are entirely tile throughout the house. 

I loved going to odowds vacuums in omaha. They have thousands and thousands of vacuums from the earliest and up. It's maddening to say the least. They have to shops. One is very run down. Hundreds of antique vacuums shoved everywhere and piled on top of each other. In dirty dark unlit cavernous...

I now read you took it to a Trans shop not just a general mechanic was going to say almost no mechanic shop does their own transmission rebuilding unless they are a more well established larger shop.    That makes more sense with the core confusion now 

I've had optimas last years and some last a year. Walmart batteries last years. Some last a year etc etc. It all depends on the circumstances, environment and battery to battery 

Oh Of course I wouldn't go Baja racing in my Chevy lol. It's a stock truck not a prerunner race truck.   It's what we take far into the desert to go shooting. Good truck for hauling our gear 

Core unit probably just means a rebuilt transmission and yours gets sent back to be rebuilt and put in the next car down the line.    No shop puts new transmissions or motors in a car even on basically new cars/under warranty interestingly enough. 

Interstate lasting 5-7 years? Not in the desert or Midwest hah 

I don't even go to the goodwill anymore here in vegas. They are just awful. I miss Nebraska thrift shopping 

Got an interstate in the back of my 2008 mercedes sl. (main battery vs the starter battery) Will see how long it lasts here in Vegas. It's an older battery. Maybe two years old. I suspect it will be going out in the next 6 months   

I'm jealous of your battery longevity     Here in Las Vegas batteries only last about 1.5 years. All my cars batteries started dropping dead out here after a bit. Have replaced almost all of em in the driving vehicles.   The first to go was my old mercedes w140 s class which had a 15...

I've got two Chryslers with bad transmissions here haha. 545rfe in the 04 Durango needing a rebuild. Getting pretty jerky and slippy   The 93 wrangler still retains its original aisin ax-15 5 speed that's all but gernaded itself. Probably due to being bolted to a Chevy v8

Have had a number of these over the years. Such outstanding vacuums and a unique sound.    Sure wish I had carpet! Nobody in Vegas has it I seem to notice             

Top painted minus the gold accents and some touchups 

Yeaaaaaa its very intimidating on the inside. With many of the chips custom made for conns and no longer available for decades.    I'll be using a nice audio interface with my pc and some good quality modern external speakers. Likely two subs and 4-6 mid and tweeters 

Warning! Contains classic Conn carnage   Been working on the biggest project I've taken on for electronic work.    I picked up this late 70s Conn 652 theatre organ on the curb outside a church in Los Angeles were it sat for quite some time. My partner and I loaded it into the back of a...

Mmm no par with Mopar here lol. Biggest lemon of a vehicle ever. Our dodge Durango with a fully built srt motor after the original gernaded itself as they all tend to do.   Well this one's blown again too after using only the best heavy duty srt parts    This sad thing has been just...

Speaking of gms. The only gm branded vehicle I've got currently is my 2010 Tahoe ltz. Great truck. Good for taking in into the desert for fun.   Got limo tint on it for extra comfort.    I guess it's my only gm not counting the wrangler with a Chevy v8 in it 

Up to 9 cars here I'd need my own thread to go through em all lol 

I had a few rainbows in my teenage days living with them so they understand them
