I went ahead and bid on it as I was afraid it might end up on the curb! (Like I need another one of these) (I already have a house-sized GR-2001 in a double door cabinet as well.) It was close by and in near mint cond with everything so I could not pass on it. Also nostalgia got me two ways, First, I built the same model in '79 for a friend of the family and always wanted one for myself. However a 16 year old kid back then would find it hard to fork over 695.00 for the tv and another 280.00 for the cabinet!
Secondly, the house where it was at was 1 mile from the raft bar! Home of the raft burger! (there was a big write up in the Detroit News about that place in the early 90's) It was one of the best places in Michigan for burgers. I was hoping it was still there and it was, so on the way back it was burgertime with a nice view of anchor bay!
I hadn't been in that area in 13 years and somehow nothing has really changed, I like that
Anyhow, I will get the beast working and post some pics!
