'86 was the last year of the old style vertical uni-trak...so it's highly unlikely you'll get a newer year to work without some modification, but I could be wrong.
Excuse me, ma'am...but you've got extremely nice legs!!!...what time do they open???                                                                                                               https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8tCgN3aryQ
