Wow 360.00 . A friend wanted it but at the end it was a bit pricey .

Just curious if tow hooks go for 250+ is this a bad deal? How many 8 track units are there? Where would an 8 track player rate as a "rare" option? Lash

$360?? :eek: WOW! I'd say that an 8 track is rarer than tow hooks, I haven't seen quite as many ever.

So, did a board member won it?

Is this the right radio for 67-72 chevy trucks if
it is how come the nobs are both on the same
side?

This unit goes along with the radio, it hangs underneath the dash. $360 is just insane though, I guess I should look for these things in the junkyard.

Gee_Emm 360 is insane and someone actualy paid that amount .
I don't think you will find one at a wrecking yard . So the hunt begins for 8 track players .

Cant be as rare as a original slider for a 72. not able to find one with a single center (steel) latch.

I think Bad4x4 got an original 8 track with his 4WD orange blazer he bought about a month ago. Remember he lifted it and a bunch of people about had a heartattack because it was so stock before he lifted it!!:p :D :p I can't believe that one went on ebay for $360!!!!!

Ya, and it probably ended up in the trash too. I think I'll go have a seizure now:rolleyes:

Back on topic...

Nobody has an issue with those that spend tens of thousands of dollars on a customization, but $360 for an extremely rare original to potentially complete a restoration is absurd?:confused:

I wouldn't pay that much for it either simply because I don't want one but $360 seems reasonable given the economics of supply vs demand.

I bid on it at 70 dollars and again at 80 dollars,and I was going to go 150 and stop but I would have never thought it would go for 360,I am sure it is worth it being they are some few of them around,I guess I will have to listen to that Elvis christmas 8track in the house:lol:

I didn't know they existed. Cool.... Thanks now I know...

Tell yah what... anyone got an 8 track and black shoulder belts I'll send you 1 sets of 72 tow hooks... and 1 set of 68 hooks...... eight track sent first to me. Rod .
I suppose I could have sold them and bid on that eight track on ebay.

Actually, that is a bargain compared to what some that have sold on ebay. One went for $780 and another for $500 plus. If any one has an original like the one on ebay, contact me. I would pay $360 for one but didn't get to bid on that one. Any takers?
