Ha!
I'm one of the youngest of all ya'll and probably have more records than all of
FoT combined. I haven't counted in a while but its lt is many, many thousands.
Early childhood memories of sitting inside my dad's GT6 racecar listening to
Cream "Disraeli Gears"...
And my mind simply melted toward a fantastic journey of vintage pursuit.
Cars, toys, records, memorabilia from days gone by...
Its my job, my hobby, my passion.
The funny thing is, there is only one thing that surpasses my love for vintage
objects and the stories that go along with 'em.
Its the sound I hear playing the soundtrack in my mind as I'm blasting around
the track in my harmonic/demonic GT6 race cars.
In fact, lately; I have no regrets selling some of my most prized possesions
(some I thought I would never give up)
To fuel the experience of charging through the gears with that music of the
motor filling up my head.
That sound and feeling, my friends, is as close as you can get to "out of this
world"... wraping all those moments into one totally awesome vibration of sound.
So yes Bill, theres at least a couple of "vintage guys" out here, (I'm 42)
And thanks But I already have the "Grand Prix of Gibraltar"

Bill, not only do I still have have a turntable for the 33 1/3, I still have
an 8 track tape player that still works!
I'll take it off your hands if nobody else wants it.
Let me know.
Cheers, Bill
P.S. 65 here today; tomorrow, maybe not!
Also, does anyone have a compression tester for Diesels that they would like
to get rid of? It needs to read 700 psi or more.
Thanks
