check out the droopy belts on this ST 180 and what is the specks of crud on the belt? they stat it powers up that might be true but i bet the belts did not turn, who knows swap out the belts with new belts and one might have a new unit.

That looks to be in fantastic shape to me, visually.
The belts are shot, but that is expected as it hasn't seen use obviously in years. Also, it is nice to see the cable wraps in place. One of mine broke, and I know these get weak over time as others have reported the same.
20 bids so far. Pretty good! If someone can get this for less than $150, i think it is a good deal. Less than $100 will be a steal.
Cheers,
Matt
