I have to admit, if I had extra space, I'd buy one and just leave it off to the side for memories. Our high school had one exactly like this in brown, and a few other Universal leg extension/curl machines in red sparkle vinyl -

.

I still remember agruements about who was stronger, guys using less on the top pedal leg press, or guys using more weight on the bottom.

in 1979, I would use one after school MON - FRI before practice.
I was in 8th  grade on the  hockey team, so we had a rink in our high school which was across the street from our Jr. High.
It was pretty cool, thats all they had (My  home gym at the time had more than the HS).
When I got to HS a year later, the Universal was gone, but we had  full (though small) weight room...

That machine came in handy at the time...

My gym has some late 60's Nautilus equipment... a leg extension, a leg curl, lat pulldown and a pullover machine.  They are museum pieces, but people still use them.

The pic of Weider&Platz, WTF, with the cat???

Whenever you see "gym" in a hotel, that's pretty much what you get. Not even worth using really, sucks for everything.

The leg extension and leg curl machines aren't too bad either.

Wow. We had the same damn arguments. Obviously none of us was a budding physicist and could calculate levers.
