    Schweeeeeet!!! Congratulalions. I'd definitely put that puppy into action once she's correctly updated. You can always retire her once she gives out, if ever. Keep us updated. Good luck & take care.

    Cyclo way ahead of their time. This is the first dual action polisher I ever used to detail cars. Finishes great. Awesome find!

    I still have it cleaned it up and oiled it. It runs and sounds good just haven't got any backing plates or pads to try it out yet.

    So cool. Really shows the longevity of the tool. We occasionally get ones of similar vintage in that still run strong. Brush replacement, cleanup, oil and they go for another couple decades!

    Great find! Funny, I just checked my local craigslist to see if there were any old polishers and found this!

    Nice I like how the name is in the handle. Has a low number on the plate. 4 dollars is a steal.
