    That's Bev's bike (red one) which is going to be replaced with her first love, an ATV soon.

    SX-780, and yes--it's MINT. Old friend of mine back in STL donated her for the 70's room.

    I had one of those back in 1978. Used it every day until it finally died in 1996.

    Me too. The guy who sent it (Rob) went with me in '78 when we both bought one.

    I thought I had you on "the wall" poster. The movie came out in 1982. But, the album came out in 79 so I guess its legal in a '70's room. :)

    I did my research, and found the exact same factoid. Funny. '79 baby--it COUNTS. LOL

    That tv really does need to go. However, you could paint it that green avocado color from the 70's and it would fit right in. Oh, and those crates? They don't cut it at all. They need to be the wood crates. Those plastic ones are 80's to 90's vintage.

    In the 70's, I had the red plastic milk crates kiped from a local Kroger store. Never saw any wooden ones.

    The milk crates are definitely 70's. I had them (in South Dakota) and have never even seen wooden ones.

    It must depend on what part of the country. I always saw records stored in them in the 70's.

    I know what you're saying now...peach (produce) crates. They were all wood--I know what you mean. I stored albums in those too.

    It's a Pioneer SX-780, circa 1977-78.

    Picked up a bright yellow bean bag chair and 70's orange floor lamp to go on the left side of the bar.

    NOW she is done. :cool:
