Pics of Rickenbackers from your Past

Post by brew »

Trawling through my hard drive here....

I am finding loads of "lost" pics from the cobbled section of the information super highway - including some of the Rickenbackers I have owned.

Need to shrink them to under 500 pixels though.

Here's one - my 350V63 (sold last year)

Any one have any pics of Ricks from their "past", that you'd care to share?

That would make a good album cover Peter!
'Rickenbacker'...what a name! After all these years, it still thrills me.

But what would you call the album?

"Honey Times Two"? Image

Hmmm.... not a bad name for a song..........

How about "Honey times Three" if you include the car! Is that an Austin 1100, there?

Well, nevermind Pete, mate.

Cars cost too much to run and women are only trouble.

Below are my ex's.....'97 4003MID, '93 4003MG, '87 4003SPC Tuxedo and '98 4003s8 JG. I also owned a '73 4001 with all the goodies for a few years in the early '90's, a MG BT 4003s5 for about 6 months until I gave up on the string spacing and then a 4001CS that I snagged from Ebay for a good deal and passed on to a fellow Forumite.
