Mike Patey's creation. Started as a Carbon Cub frame, carbon fiber fuselage, "off road" suspension which is height adjustable, big motor, solar panels and batteries in the wings so the electric motorcycles can be recharged. Extending leading surfaces on the wings for enhanced low speed capability. Amazing build. There is a full series of videos on his website if you haven't already been down that rabbit hole. ;) Best Les |

pretty similar to the years in this stack. I think it was something like '64-75 for the year books. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/1-oAA...Ac/s-l1200.jpg https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/jUIAA...xi/s-l1200.jpg I would kind of like to have them again. I find it interesting to see how knowledge has changed over time. And I suspect the grandsons would probably even leaf through them. |

Another brand new word was Hippie. The definition was "one who is hip" and that did not help me one iota. We were Montgomery Alabama at the time, and there were no hippies around. In 1969 we moved to Hawaii again. On the road trip to California we spent a few nights as some friends that lived in San Fransisco, and they took us through Haight-Ashbury. Hippies were everywhere. We stopped and I bought a Doors poster at a poster shop. It was tossed long ago, but likely would have been valuable if in good shape now. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1747079547.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1747079547.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1747079547.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1747079547.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1747079547.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1747079547.jpg |

But I read all of the World Books A-Z and most of those years too :). Then I discovered Playboy magazine ... had better articles :D |
Technically, what I had was a Sony WM-7 which was, IMO, the premium model including auto-reverse and very sleek.
https://rvb-img.reverb.com/image/upl...koew9mf7qn.jpg https://img.walkman.land/sony/wm-7/black_silver.jpg I never actually owned a boombox, but some buddies did. I did have a Sansui component system. I think many of these are the same models that I had, but it came in a case with a glass front and glass top (because it also came with a turntable). http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1747088425.jpg No Blockbuster rentals? How? That was how the US watched movies for 10-20 years. |

I needed to drill a hole in my attic at the far end of the house for a phone line. I did not own enough extension cords to get there. And it was decades before I had a battery powered drill. It worked great. |

Based on the **Porsche 911**, the 934 was equipped with a 3.0L turbocharged flat six engine that produced around 500 horsepower, allowing it to dominate in racing events like the 24 Hours of Le Mans and **IMSA** series… The car's turbocharged engine was paired with a 4-speed manual transmission and an advanced suspension system, making it a formidable force on the track. The 934 featured wider fenders to accommodate larger tires and a larger rear wing for increased downforce. Its aggressive appearance and raw power were matched by its performance on the track, where it quickly gained a reputation as one of the most successful and iconic racing Porsches of the era… The **Porsche 934 RSR Turbo** remains a significant milestone in Porsche's motorsport history, showcasing the brand's innovation and commitment to performance… |
