Here is a machine I got today at the thrift store for $8. The wires are wrapped around the handle because the top grip Holder is broken off, but this machine needs some work to it. It needs a spring for the foot release, the belt needs fix, and it needs a top grip for the wires. This machine sounds healthy, but can someone tell me the year on this and what it's capable of and is it rare?

I remember when in 1990 The Simplicity line was launched. Tacony had just purchased Riccar. The 5000 was the entry model, with the blue 5200 the next model, the red 5300 with the rug/floor selector, and the grey 5500 was the commercial model. About 1991, the even less expensive 4800 launched as a true entry model.
