I don't see a tape in that one... I'm telling you Tom, digitize your Fonz tape, and have a new one made to use in yours.

Here you go Tom. Found this place online pretty quick.

8-track to CD:

Complete CD . $ 24.00
Basic 8 track repair (if needed) . $ 8.00

The repair is probably just replacing the wheel and foam tape, but I don't know if yours would need it.

Also, I see no "if your tape breaks, it's not our fault" fine print on their website, only a "all 8 tracks returned to you in original condition" on the order form.

Looks like something's missing too... a molex plug with no matching harness, and some dust clean spots on the shelf like there was something there before.

Man that makes me sick. I saw one at the auction in 1998 go for nothing. Back then the demand just was not there and I think it went for 50 dollars or so working. I held out on buying it because I want to get some Enron stock but ended up buying GM stock instead. I could of gotten a cool game and the value would of skyrocketed. That cab looks to be in pretty good shape too in this auction.

What sound does the 8 track have. Is it an engine rev or music?

The 8 track plays engine sounds from what I've been told.
