Old Enough To Remember?

... pfffff... right...

I would have thought she looks pretty good!

I checked off all 20! You left out REEL TO REEL TAPE RECORDERS! I used to ride with one in my backpack and huge headphones. I was sooo cool! PS. I sold encyclopedias door to door.

I had one of those as well!

I also had a job selling encyclopedias door to door... I lasted one day & quit.

Fun fact: in the 80's, before the interwebs, I accessed bulletin boards all over Canada and the US with my Atari 800 and a superfast 2400 baud modem.

I also have had them, but not portable.

 

[Bikeric]

All except the Walkman as I never had one of those. I still use a Canon A1 film camera on a regular basis, carry paper maps in my campervan and watch old videos.

Sadly I ticked off all 20.

All 20 for me as well. A life well lived!

 

[Nashcat]

Yep, all 20. Most of them within the last year.

I was hard up for a job, lasted two days before I told a nice young couple they did not want to buy into that unrealized obligation! and then I just never went back.

Remember when you parked up front to watch movies and in the back to party?

Remember when you parked up front to watch movies and in the back to party?

I had a '64 Chevy van (194 cu in, 3-on-the-tree) way back when. We would park between two speaker posts with the side doors facing the screen, use both speakers, and watch while sitting or lying on a mattress.

How about an 8 track?

How about an 8 track?

My 72 Monte Carlo had one!

 

[Mophead]

My 68 Roadrunner has a factory 8 track, AC, and bench seat so the girlfriend could sit by you and you worked the Hurst 4 speed shifter to get you elbow into discovery mode.

I'm old enough... to remember when car companies bragged about having Synchronized 2nd and 3rd gears !

 

[JetRanger]

I learned to shift in the Army on a '52 pattern jeep... very uncomfortable when trying to sleep in the back with all the radio gear.
