I agree with what Rental Limo said too. (Born in 1974? Wow, I must be the old man on here, having just celebrated my 50th birthday on June 12th this year). I am new to this site, I never knew anyone but ME cared about vintage electronics and other items from the past. For me, the grwoing up years were the late 1960s and early 70s. Man, do I have stories of saving things! When my parents retired in 1985, I pulled out both Bell System rotary phones that had we used since the house was new in 1963 (and I still have them both today - a red one and an olive green one - and the red one is in operation in the master bedroom which contains an all original 1959 pecan wood Drexel bedroom set of furniture in prefect shape). A 1964 RCA Victor b&w portable with remote control has been with me since it was new in '64 and it's just fine (but really does heat up a small room LOL). I have a couple of Zenith consoles but nothing as nice as Dougs that I have seen on YouTube.
Cars...nothing beats the 1960s and early 1970s AMERICAN cars. I love me some Detroit iron. My uncle had a '71 Continental Mark III, my other uncle had a '66 GTO and another uncle had a '67 Plymouth VIP 2 door, my cousin had a '67 Cougar XR-7, my dad had a '69 Mercury Marquis bought new in May 1969 (the car I remember the most).
Can anyone here tell me how I can post a want ad? I really want an original 1967 or 1968 Zenith color console in mint shape. I live in NY - there are none around here and TV repair shops think I'm kind of strange when I go in and ask if they have seen any around. It doesnt matter the cost of shipping, it's something I really want to complete my childhood memories. Thanks in advance for any help!
