    Here's a photo of Debbie Harry and some Teac open reel and cassette decks as well as a Thorens turntable. Not sure on the electronics?

    The image of Rod the Mod was used in an Altec ad :)

    I also espy with my little eye an hk Citation preamp, an Altec (ss) amplifier of some sort (lotta knobs), and a big-boy Sansui tuner. The tt looks like it, too, might (???) be a Thorens based on ;) the base design.

    The general Gestalt and that orange pushbutton switch suggests "mid-70s Kenwood" to me (FWIW).

    EDIT: Or orange light :)

    Like this KA-6004 (but more knobs and switches, so maybe further up the foodchain)

    KA-8004, methinks B)

    N.B. In much of the world (including the home market of Japan) Kenwood hifi components were sold under the "TRIO" brand.

    EDIT: Looks like Ms Harry may have had the loudness switched on when that photo was taken :)

    Indeed they did. Heck, I'm still looking for a decent au-717 for sale at a decent price. Some of these vintage sellers want far too much.

    They're not just pretty faces (as, of course, is also the case with Mr. @KennethSwauger :# )

    Sansui made a bevy of fine tuners which also boasted above average aesthetics (both of which, I'd posit, are reflected in prices on the current used marketplace for 'em). Based on my (limited) experience, the tuners in the Sansui receivers were likewise better than average performers. There's a 5000A here, e.g., with surprisingly good FM and AM sections.

    Looks like this motor is on the ground.

    Whatever those tires go on, forget a jack, you'll need a crane.

    Those tires can weigh in excess of 10,000lbs each, if they are anything like the Bridgestone plant here makes. Some of the tires they make here are 25,000lbs. each....
    They can take two weeks to make one.

    Manufactured by Caterpillar, the 797F, introduced in 2008, is the latest in their range of dump trucks and with an operating weight of 687.5 tons, can carry a 400 ton payload. A 4000 horsepower four stroke diesel engine is used, which also features 20 cylinders, and is air-to-air inter-cooled. With Caterpillar priding themselves on being the only ultra-class haul truck manufacturer to use hydraulic torque converter transmissions, the 797F stands out amongst the other biggest mining dump trucks, that all utilize transmissions which are diesel-electric.

    ^^^^ I recently learned Sly and the Family Stone were a San Francisco area band. I always thought they were East Coast for some reason. I knew they played at Fillmore West and Avalon in the sixties. I saw them in Omaha in Oct. '74, great concert.
