That statement holds true for the goldie and JPG.
I resemble that. Nothing replaced but missing 4 wisdom teeth and my tonsils.JPG wrote:WileyCoyote wrote:chapmanruss wrote: JPG who already posted here still has his "Goldie" that he purchased new and at over 55 years old is still working strong.

Don't I wish!!!
The goldie has only had a control sheave and belts replaced since new. Not always properly maintained, so that speaks a lot about the machine itself.
As for JPG he has everything he came into the world with(nothing replaced - yet) but is not as fit as when the goldie was new.
