dang,, that's why no one bid on them. :D
actually it's worse than that, i have to drive over the sunshine skyway bridge to get there.
Is that anything like over the rainbow? Giddy up and go get them. :)

It's hard to tell from the pics, what are the cabs made from? Are the horns the usual flare rate?
Altec had a name for it, that's been mentioned here by a former employee, but I don't recall what it was. It was basically an OSB type material coated with a grained vinyl, that was supposed to be paintable.Quote:
