Hey , it's your money, Personally I would keep it up to date. I think the Cassette and eight track days are done and getting good quality tunes in those formats are like searching for hen's teeth, and I am an older dude and old school as they come But I am a sound freak, pushing 60 with both hands and if it's too loud you are too old, type of guy. I love Rock and roll and as loud as my system will allow good sound quality, but i push the envelope. and the cassette and eight track are ...well just not there any more. BUT IT IS your money, spend it where you like, Just enjoy it !


Cheers!

Yeah I like it loud too, I'll test it out first and if I don't like what I hear I'll re sell to someone who wants it.

First that is a nice radio. I like the wood grain face. Nice score!!!
Did you say amp. I know these are old and outdated, but if you want the authentic sound of the 70's these need to be run. I have 8 and of course 8-tracks will be needed . This is only about 10% of the ones I have buying and refurbishing. And they play great!!! Of course the 70's speakers too have to be from the era. I am working on those. Have several sets!

Any one can have a modern set up, but it takes a true die hard to have an original set up. And by looking at your van and avatar, you are a true 70' die hard.

It is better to have Van'd once in your life, then to never had Van'd at all!
