Yeah, lots of things are closed up around there. This one was on Douglas ave. The only reason I knew about the set was that is was listed on CL, I found the ad 3 hours after it was posted judging by the time stamp on the photos. The pictures on it are pretty good, here's the link http://racine.craigslist.org/atd/3108856179.html

Damn, that one looks about as mint as they get! Congrats on the nice save!

You gonna stop by anytime this week? Got lots of proto tube tinkering that might required assistance, such as watching TV on it while drinking a cold one...lol

Very nice, i had one as a second set in Allentown.but left behind when i moved to Texas in'83

good luck, nothing is so important to us as keeping our goodies safe!

I hope someday you get a place in the country where they can bury your hide nearby.

Most excellent 11 you've saved there.

Now's hopping you get in that apartment too.

Nice to see it go to a good home, I still have my first 11 from '83 and a spare chassis from one just like yours. May the jug have good emission!!!

Thanks guys, I really look forward to getting started on it. I should be working on some other sets first but they're buried in storage right now. BTW, I did get that apartment. We spent the first night there last night. It was good.....I'll be moving the set over shortly, along with all kinds of other stuff.

I'd love to but I don't even know where I'd put it in this apartment. The bedroom doors are kinda narrow, what's the depth on the Wingate cabinet? If it'll fit in there I'll dig it out. Then I can work on the 5 and the 11 Also if the 5'll fit, I know the 4 will for sure.
