Attractions that have never changed

Which attractions in Disney have never changed since their creation? Obviously a lick of paint or new seats on ride vehicles etc don't count, I'm talking no changes to the attraction as such. Thinking myself I can't remember changes to

The Jungle Cruise (except the captains don't shoot animals anymore?)
M.I.L.F (obviously was different ride previously)
Stitch (obviously was different ride previously)
Buzz Lightyear (obviously was different ride previously)
The Great Movie Ride (except what's not working or the cm's spiel?)
Indiana Jones Stunt Show
Rock 'n' Roller Coaster (apart from queue area?)
It's Tough to be a Bug
Expedition Everest (except the bird and yeti not working?)

Now maybe I've missed some (or many?) or perhaps there have been changes to the above I can't remember or didn't notice. Anyone care to correct me or add anything?

Buzz's queue was reworked a couple times.
GMR has had a bunch of changes including character blocking, script changes, finale film and Footlight Parade being completely reworked.

In MK I don't think that Splash Mtn. or Big Thunder Mtn. have changed much. The paddle wheel cruise is the same sans the burning building. The Carousel and the Tea Cups are close to the same. People mover is just the spiel. Small World is very close to the same ride it always was. Peter Pan seems the same to me.

In Epcot...the American Adventure, France and Norway have stayed on as far as the shows are concerned.

In DHS...other than Indiana Jones I think the Muppets is the same, everything else has been changed in one form or the other.

In AK...other then the ones mentioned the only one I can think of, and I might be wrong, is Kali River Rapids.

I have some gaps when it comes to WDW trips, but how much did Haunted Mansion change? I remember it being very much the same as when I was a kid. The stretch room, the loading area, the coffin, etc. I haven't been there since the queue changed, but if we are talking about just the interior of the ride I don't remember much.

It got a whole new scene inside the stairs room and a makeover for the attic scene.

They added a scene near the beginning where you go through a room full of stairways surrounding you in a weird optical illusion. Ghostly footmarks appear on the stairs as you pass. The attic scene had some new additions also as well as new effects in the mirrors at the end with the ghosts. I believe they also updated the sound effects in the stretch room.

What about ...
Astro Orbiter (New Look but the ride vehicle stayed the same)
TTA/People Movers (New Look and the Narration change several times but the overall ride is the same)
Mad Tea Party (Roof added before most of us can remember and new paint job, other than that its the same ride)

Great movie ride had a costume change and the movie props in the waiting area get changed out. Jungle Cruise had the back half of the plane from Casablanca added (they're just winging it now) along with other changes. Jungle Cruise also originally was more meant to be about nature and serious before AK came along. Buzz the queue was redone and the photo section wasn't always there. They also added the gift shop at the end (because as we all know, every good ride ends with a gift shop).

Peter Pan to me...Except for the facade, it seems the same to me as 30 yrs ago...I guess that will change when it gets the queue update at some point soon.
