Yeah, and he's got the first "345/12" I've ever seen...

That might be that Willies is going along the reasoning that Rickenbacker made a 325/12....

Or the body cavity might be marked as 345....

Still- that 360BBR is mighty tasty; would go well with
my 360/12BBR

Good reasoning.

Wanna see my 665/12?

LOL- that's funny Image
Your ideas are intriguing to me and I should like to subscribe to your newsletter.

However, I seem to recall that Tom Petty's 63 was referred to by Rick as a 625/12.

(I think that was in R.Smith's book....)

As soon as I write some sort of newsletter, I'll let you know...

Meanwhile, stay tuned.

Does the presence of a 360 BBR on the market hint at a full production run of these models?
