I will indeed spiff (so very little needed) and get this thing out of my shop.
Or maybe I'll just keep it for doing reps in my powerlifting regimen this winter.

I'd have to say it's a good choice for that.. I have an inherited 67 racer deluxe, I used it for the same purpose quite a few times the last two winters and it worked like a charm, even if a bit awkward.
