Kind of a fun thread - I had a cassette player stolen out of my VW Rabbit - reported it to the police. A few months later I get this phone call from the police station saying they'd recovered my cassett player and I could come pick it up. I told them thanks but toss it. It eats tapes. We had a good laugh.

Yea, but did you get your Creedence tapes and briefcase back?
Folded over book of matches wedged between the 8 track and the player to hold the 8 track in place, scotch tape where it broke, clicking in the middle of songs...
Good times...
When Music Went Mobile with 8-Track Tapes - Best Classic Bands
Do you remember when it was a big deal to have an 8-track player in your car? Check out Ford's '66 Mustang adbestclassicbands.com
It's been so long ,but I do remember what a pain an 8 track was , don't know if I ever did the matches or not . The cassette tapes were far better for sure , but I had the player eat a few , I think they got better as time went on . I still have all my cassette tapes ,and listen to them on occasion . Never have gave up my home cassette player . We also still have all our records , been thinking of getting a record player to listen to them again .

Years ago when I wanted to meet women in bars, I chatted with this beautiful brunette only to discover that she thought she was really hot sh_t.
I then looked at her and asked her when was the last time she waxed her upper lip. You should have seen the deflating look on her face.

In the way back machine (early 70s) I’d often park my Gremlin (yeah, I was hot shit) under the Viaduct (here in Seattle), leave the windows down, doors unlocked, 24 8 tracks and Pioneer deck in full view, and hop on the ferry for a couple days at home. No one ever vandalized or stole a thing.
Imagine that.
Imagine that.
Mostly because it was a Gremlin. And there was no market for Lawrence Welk 8 track tapes.
No offense intended. I had a 71 Vega with an 8 track player, and nobody wanted to go near the thing...let alone steal anything. The only less respected vehicle than the Gremlin or Vega was the AMC Pacer (the 1970's precursor to the Nissan Pube).

So great. A spits 8 track is blowing my mind
By recent Japanese car standards the Pacer was quite graceful!
No it wasn’t you could fix the ones that got ate with scotch tape
I’ve probably heard (& enjoyed) every Gremlin joke, but it was actually a pretty good car. I was very unkind to it, having many epic episodes that I won’t bore you with. But, it started every time, never failed me and never broke down.
Back to your regular programming.
