His method of drum recording (as pioneered on some of the Zeppelin records) has had a real resurgence in the last few years as people have re-discovered it to good effect. Stonking buy.

I think I’ll look to replace it with some sort of premium mid 80s radio cassette. There a few drilled holes and evidence of what what presumably a car phone for our record producer between the front seats .

Hopefully will be straightforward, but vaguely remember someone on here years ago, going the Bentley route and having real issues getting the audio sorted. Loving your drinks cabinet as well. Are the kids loving it as well. Stand them in front and change from city to country horn tooSavvy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiC Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Always interesting to see the previous private plates on these types of cars.
