I'd love to get a couple of 8-track tapes. Cream is one of them besides Led Zeplin. I've got a radio in my garage with an 8-track player in it... but no tapes.

I just rebuilt a bunch of my 8 track tapes. The foam pressure pad inside the case that always rots away... I've found that the 1/4" weather strip rolls from Menards is a perfect replacement for that. Just cut and press in and the tape is as good as new.

You also need an NOS matchbook, to jam in the slot next to the tape to get it to play right.

He was going to put them on eBay, I called him, told him to sell em here. he's up north till Monday, he's going to send me a few pics, I'll start a thread and post a pic of what he has. We were having dinner at his house when he pulled the boxes out, I crapped myself. Lol. I got the 2 Zeppelin free for doing the Tile job. Sorry guys, you didn't help me. Lol I'll post pics next week. I recently bought a like new Sears portable 8 track player for the garage. I hate to open the new Zep ones though.
