Yeah, I'm still working in that house and the 'Home Stereo Console' is still there and functional. I'll check it out tomorrow. I know the turntable still works and it MIGHT record 8 tracks! Wouldn't that be sumpthin?

Hey M; ya want a couple of 'Sly & the Family Stone' tapes? Or I could send you some from my Dad's collection. Choose from Slim Whitman, Ernest Tubb, Don Williams,.........Or an Andy Williams Christmas tape.

The Chevrolet demo tapes usually had a good song or 2 per 8-track...

Well, all this talk of 8-track units got me in the buying mood! Yenko actually offered an AM/FM 8-Track Stereo unit in the parts catalog, made by Lear Jet Co. So, thanks to Cumby's EBaY sleuthing, I bought the exact same model that was offered by Yenko SportsCars! The best part is that it's not the type to replace the indash unit, it's a stand alone unit - so I can put it in the glove box, hang it underneath, etc...

Now, where do I get some of these old-fangled 8 Track tapes?

You need a Craig FM converter wired up with old lamp cord, throw it on the pass side floor and put a couple of ciggy burn marks in it for a period correct flavor...

My brother Gary probably still has Boston/Boston, Joe Walsh/ Rocky Mountain Way, Frampton/Frampton Comes Alive and Gary Wright/Dream Weaver on 8 track....

I remember cruising around with him in his Trans Am listening to all of the above
