Also, is that can chock full o' nuts and bolts?

Those are just spare parts for me.
The Mesa TT-800 into the 215 Garage Bomber. A very impressive sound, I think the best ever in my personal experience. Loud enough to make Godzilla twitch, turn and look at you with one eye.

Lowered the price. $500 with case.

So by Thumper standards “Give them a great price, they want to pay way less, plus get gas money, lunch money, and allowance for their time”

I’ll buy it, but want a 50% club discount (so that’s $250)
minus $100 in gas money for me to drive to your house and back (that brings the price down to $150)
minus my breakfast and lunch costs at $25 per meal (that brings it down to a $100 purchase price)
minus my drive time of 10 hours round trip at the minimum wage of $16.50 per hour for the first 8 hours plus time and a half for the last 2 hours for a total of $182.

In other words, if you pay me $82 I’ll take that bass off your hands.
Hey, I kinda like this Thumper Math!

This wasn't the only thing of mine he got his hands on!

Ahem!

yeah, can't beat these things as chick magnets.....some time ago some dude literally asked me why someone would own one of these "ugly" things just as a gorgeous woman got down to pet him....dude ended up with her number and as he's walking away (with the girl in his arm!) casually turns, looks at me and quietly mumbles "gotta get me one of those"...TRUE STORY...

Oh my. That does look nice. But my preference would be this:

You all who have a functional Craigslist are lucky. In Utah and surrounding states it hasn't thrived, people use KSL Classifieds. Plus people are really cheap here. Give them a great price, they want to pay way less, plus get gas money, lunch money, and allowance for their time. I'm only kind of kidding!

My local CL is as dysfunctional as the rest of them lol. Besides the 2 birds (T&D), here's my only other decent CL find:

I just wet my pants. That is.... I can't think of a word I've heard that is appropriate. Always preferred those over 'Cudas.

I would be happy with one of those or an AMX. I have a Camaro from the same time, and I'm happy with it.

Austin CL always has a few birds. Mostly the basic IVs, but occasionally a CP, VP, or Gibson.

that AMX sold quick...price like that....hmmm two 64s?

We very rarely see TBirds on ours. Usually only Epi IVs. There was a Greco last year, but it had been “upgraded” with EMGs. No thank you.
