".....PS: Isn't it amazing how many wires there are in a car? This one is just a bare bones hot rod. Can you imagine it with air conditioning, stereo, electric windows, wipers, etc.???......"
With the Plymouth add to that list.....cruise control, dome, trunk and under hood lighting, dual electric fuel pumps, reverb, illuminated ashtray and lighter, backup lights, heater and a bunch I know I'm forgetting.
It's a good thing I enjoy doing wiring.

REVERB I remember them from the 60s you'd hit a bump or R/R tracks and it would make a noise like your fenders feel off.
I think I still have 2 of them out in the shed.Charlie

I had one of the first 4 track tape players to come out, and then I was really ready to rock.

Although I never owned one I remember reverb units in cars. I had one on a old guitar amp though.

One of my earliest recollections as a kid in the early 60's was a 45 record player my brother had in his 56 Chevy.
Do any of our seasoned vetrans remember these?Last edited by Supa Roosta; 10-03-2006 at 07:24 AM.

Yep, forgot about the record players. Never owned one, but remember seeing them in all the ads of the day.

Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
