Fairchild AFB could make a drop over your place :-) Creighton Title: Re: AMI D-40 Model 500 Jukebox 1952 Post by: loman4ec on April 26, 2009, 07:43:00 pm My Dad built one of those a long time ago and I am sorry to say he painted it red and white and put a few sprite boy decals on it and sold it for much more than it was worth at the time :biggrin: I remember building it with him. At least at the time finding parts was impossible and we had a really hard time with the mech. Ours played 45's. Maybe it was a conversion. Those were the good ole days. I am happy to say that is the only juke he ever did that to. :biggrin:

And unfortunately, it wouldn't fit in the back of my T-1 aircraft or else I'd fly up there and get it! :biggrin:

Just borrow a T-38 trainer and take the back seat out. That would be a picture to put next to Moondawgs T-Bird with a Cav-72 :-) Creighton |
