"Remember those transister radios about the size of a package of likesavers that had a earplug. You tuned them by pulling a rod up and down. Never worked well but all of us had them much like the walkman today."

TV Screens about 6" Square in a cabinet about 4' Sq.

A lawn mower without a motor..................

DogYeller, Farming with horses fairly common around here. Lot of Amish farmers have moved to Wisconsin, brings back memories watching them farm the old way and make a living at it. Now if we could just get fence rows back, they were great for rabbits and pheasants and all wildlife.

If I recall the main feature of the flat tops with long sides was what we used to call the "duck's ass" in the back. I don't know about you guys, but I grew up with Howdy Doody, Buffalo Bob, Clarabelle and the gang. One of the best programs was at 6 PM daily, called "The Frontier Theater." A lot of great cowboys then; Hopalong Cassidy, Randolph Scott, Buster Crabb, Autry and Rogers, and oodles of others. Boy was it ever a great time to be young. Best wishes.

And, of course, a foxtail for the antenna.

Don't forget to drop the front end on the car so it rides about 4" off the road. COOL:p
