I wasn't looking for a 4005...

Then suddenly this March '67 presented itself to me. Right place, right time and it has now joined the family. In great shape for 43 years old - all original & plays like butta. The previous owner had it for 30 years. I took possession today and photo'd it on my deck at about 7PM. Hope to have better pics with better lighting over the next few weeks.

Erm, what neighborhood is that again -- the place where this 4005 presented itself to you? Was it dressed in a trenchcoat? :roll:

Congrats, that looks like a real beauty. :D

sorry about off topic here... Jeff, looking at your avatar... man that would make a nice belt buckle - a nice small one for dress pants and a slightly bigger one for jeans and the likes.

Wow, for some reason I really like those, might have to get a second job, or put a rubber band around my head and snap out of it.
