That checkmate is pretty cool! It's really funny that it popped up for sale at this time.

I remember back in the day... I bought a 1982 Camaro V6 first year of the new body style, I put keystone klassic's with 60's all the way around, louvers, head light covers, alpine stero.... man, i thought that thing was cool. First new car I ever bought... speaking of headlight covers... How about some more pic's of the wife ICDEDPPL...

I have to hear about the old tanks in this neck of the woods too. "ya but I can do 60 in anything" when honestly so can I, cause 60 is 3200 rpm

Maybe the cig is better in 8-12 footers, but I don't boat the great lakes in November so I don't care. I wanna go fast when it is nice out, ya know, 95 percent of the conditions we see while boating.

BULLCHIT! We all know you drove a Celica hatchback with Kraco speakers rolling around in the back; carrying on about how great your stereo sounded.

No....I was a GM loyalist for many years......until cars got complicated and they couldn't figure out how to make a window motor that last more than 3 years.

Man, I forgot about kraco! I remember a guy on this lake that had the surface mount Kraco speakers tucked on the dash of his 32 AT back in the day. The speakers almost sounded as bad as the diarrhea that spewed out of his mouth when talking about boats.

You AT owners make fountain owners seem modest

Screw Kraco. If you were really cool you stuck your Realistic home stereo speakers behind the bench seat of your truck. .

Or you stuck them in the back window!

Man, I haven't heard Kraco in years... If I look hard enough I might be able to find the realistic's some where in my attic

I had a buddy who had a mid 80's Caprice Wagon, woodgrain and all on the sides. His dad gave it to him. He had a Walkman, with a Y adapter, into a AMP. That amp powered two big house speakers in the back of the wagon. He's currently shopping for a used Cig as we speak.
