I think 8-track would be more apropos.]]>Oct 12th 2007 10:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/
1) The player he used is not vintage.
2) Should he decide to install a CD player it shall be a vintage 1982 Sony CDP-101 that is about the same age as the (Circa '82) Sears Atari and TV. They show up on ebay for about $10.
3) Alternatively, a Sony D-50 from 1984 could be substituted. But don't expect those to survive road bumps very well. Grrll-grabblesslsssszzzzz...the beat goes...bzzzzzzdd..on.

Not being bad or nothing, but that sure looks like it's built for the enjoyment of the driver... When would the driver be playing this? It may be a bit uhmm, *dangerous* to play & drive, no? Even if the side passenger plays it, how can the driver resist diverting his attention from the game (asuming it beeps and everything)?]]>Oct 12th 2007 9:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/Oct 12th 2007 11:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/Oct 13th 2007 12:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/Oct 12th 2007 9:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/*screeech* *CRASH!*
"I'm sorry officer, I was looking at my Atari"

And an 8-track would be appropriate. However, considering I still have my 8-track, next to the CB.....]]>Oct 12th 2007 10:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/Oct 12th 2007 11:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/Oct 13th 2007 12:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/

It's all about the Vinyl baby. That's what it should have had. Either than that...by all means it's perfect.

If you want hi-fidelity in a moving vehicle you have to go with a reel-to-reel tape deck. 8-track had quite low sound quality because of the compression, as did cassette tapes of that era. Clearly a reel-to-reel deck installed in the glove box on a slide-out platform is what is necessary for the best vintage audio experience in a vintage automobile. ]]>Oct 13th 2007 5:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/Oct 13th 2007 9:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/]]>Oct 15th 2007 4:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/12/1979-buick-riviera-gets-pimped-atari-style/Oct 15th 2007 2:27AM
