    KKOA member sticker from 1980. I would have been 12. I doubt I actually joined. Some old guy prolly felt sorry for me.

    That was a hanging display in a record store, back when Boston did their reunion tour. I talked the Stoner working the register out of it. Maybe 1987ish?

    That was my first thought too! What the hell is it, actually?

    Yeah, my first thought was, “I’ll bet that brake drum is hell on new brake shoes!” Maybe the shoes have matching teeth, more than a little grabby.
    I like the Boston song “Smokin”, hell of a driving song....

    Don't know shit about music, and LP's are a hard to sell item. That mystery item is a 1928 Ford flywheel that has been cut down for use in a Sprint Car, very common 1930's to early 1950's. Here is a stock one, and a photo of the clutch pack.
    OIP.jpg Model-a-ford-multi-disc-clutch-1928-model.jpg The teeth in the clutch pack would wear notches in the flywheel splines and cause them to stick, Fairly common design for 1920's cars. Bob

    I saw them at the only Texas Jam to ever sell out! Over 83,000 people in the Cotton Bowl. It was Boston's first Concert since 1979.

    That’s me with the long mullet and cut
    Off jeans and sleeveless shirt....4 rows back.

    See me?

    That's not actually me. It's a guy I use in every post I mention an 80's mullet type. I did, however, look and dress just like this guy......until last week.
