    The 808-8A is the treble driver.
    The horns themselves look to be 811B.
    Kinda puzzled by "801-8A"... umm... well, N801-8A is an 800 Hz crossover.
    No mention of the woofer, it appears. :(
    500 bucks for the pair... not unreasonable.

    I'm not sure I'd trust that upper chain array. That hook looks like it means business.

    If that thing doesn't have adjustable suspension it'll be crap for the zombie apocalypse.

    Please forgive the pop culture cliche. I just started rewatching Fear The Walking Dead last night. Yes, because the rest of the streaming offerings as of late are dumb. And so are their UIs.

    Ooh, but I did read an article today that said piracy is on the rise again. Yarrr!

    The Internet is such an amazing place.
    I have never, ever seen a photo of any of these types of toy, assembled nor in pieces, so this is revelatory. It's actually less cheesy than I thought they were.
    Mind you, I remember seeing ads for these when they were first run.
    I can't believe it! I actually pointed Doc H. to something he hadn't seen already! Umpossible!

    It was kinda neat seeing what they look like built. It's a little smaller than I expected, but still, a pretty cool vessel of imagination.

    And there was a submarine version as well? Did you guys see those ads when you were kids?

    I sent 50 cents off for the Tony Atlas workout plan once. Instead of workout plans, I received an envelope with a little bit of sand in it with a note that said, "Throw this in your own face and pretend I kicked it at you. Thanks for the 50 cents, sucker. Tony"

    I used to pick up the cop 440's for $100 (back in the day) No one knew they were special. They had a high nickel block and chrome moly rings so the bores were mint. I'd take them into my buddy at the speed shop who'd lighten the pistons, rods and crank (a secret method him and I came up with) that would make the rotating assembly super light and it would rap up crazy fast. Then I'd drop it into a Plymouth Duster with some fenderwell mods and some custom built motor mounts. We'd do 11 second 1/4 miles with pump gas on cars that we'd only spent a few grand on from start to finish. I used to call it Junk Yard Racing. Guys would spend tens of thousands of dollars on an engine and watch it blow up and literally cry. Miss those days.

    Carroll Shelby in the Ferrari GP with his Italian mechanic walking on the left (with hand on the tire) at the August 1956 Breakneck Road Hillclimb. Herman Melotti was interpreter for Shelby and the Mechanic. The mechanic only spoke Italian. (Dr. Robert Poling photo collection).
