Hey Gary
Back about '75 or so I had one in my '56 Beetle. It had an old tube radio I think it was an Automatic brand set with a vibrator p/s . Carried 2 6v car batteries one each side under the back seat to power this 12v accessory. Later on I gutted the radio and mounted the FM tuner inside. Built a several watt audio amp and a nice little FM set w/no vibrator BUZZZZZZZZ in the background. Oh the fm set was a SparkOmatic. Think I bought that thing at Zayres. I haven't seen one those 20+ yrs

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
