    You just brought me down memory lane. Non Powered Steering.in the last 45 years I've owned tons of vehicles. I read that & couldn't remember what I had that was non powered steering. Maybe a 1970"s Chevy C10 with 3 on the tree. Or a newer late 70's Chevy truck. I had a few cars back in the day that were non powered steering..... I do remember the early Chevy C10 had the gas cap behind the driver's door & the Cab mounts rusted & I jacked up the cab & I put a 2×4 across the frame & lowered it down & it kept the frame from gouging the fuel tank IIRC.. Those were the days. You could buy a vehicle for 50-200.00 & beat the snot out of it & junk it & buy another

    That same Chevy C10 I'd get to a stop sign & the linkage would lock up & I'd have to open the hood & frig with the linkage. Lmao

    No. Affil.

    Correct me if I'm wrong. Don't "used" flash bulbs, look like the ones shown in the ad photos?
    New glass does not grow on the bulbs as they age.

    I remember the bulb type ones in the ad. They came out HOT.

    I still have some old Flashcubes and Magicubes.

    LOL. The bulbs were coated with plastic or lacquer to help prevent them from exploding or cracking under the intense heat. It was a safety measure.

    Glass growing....that's funny.

    Yeah, those have been used, but only once. Low mileage, you know?

    It says "Condition: good".

    It doesn't say "Condition: great" or "Condition: new".

    I guess one could argue that they LOOK good . . . in a way. :p

    Although I guess that could be construed as a bit of a stretc even for brand new flashbulbs.

    I do have a flashbulb gun somewhere in the basement, too, though -- come to think of it.

    When I was a kid, I was playing with a camera with those rotating flash cubes. I had the camera backward, and the flash cube went off and burned my forehead. I probably screamed like a little ****.

    And that's how you teach kids not to touch stuff that doesn't belong to them.
