THE TIME TUNNEL...

Remember that great 60's Sci-fi show where two scientists were always being thrown back into various time periods? Well who would have thought that CB's had that same capibility!!

While perusing the newest entries on EBay, I came across an auction for a special Cobra 29 "Gold" edition from 1974, with a buy-it-now price of $375. Naturally, being the curious sorta guy I am, I read the description about how this was a special all gold finish model given out to someone who exceeded in sales. But the picture of the rig caught my eye, as I'm sure it will yours...

I inquired about the rig - "Was it a 23ch or 40ch rig?" (although I was familiar with the 23ch dial found on the 23ch Cobra 29), and sure enough it was a 40 channel rig. So I told them that 40 channel radios didn't come out until 1977, but perhaps the radio he had was still something special (not $375 worth), and hopefully they'll do the right thing and correct the post, or maybe.....just maybe.....this IS a special rig. One that can travel backwards in time from 1977 to 1974!! We'll have to call Art Bell on this one.....
'Nuff Said
