    Oh man Dave! You've brought back some memories! I have a '71 Olds (Ambassador) that truly needs a frame off restoration to be "driveable" again. That thing took me through 8 years of band, including 4 years of marching band. It is really beat from many "miles" of abuse! I don't think there's a solder joint on that thing that hasn't been broken. The "three cylinders" still purrr though like the day I brought it home new. They don't make 'em like that anymore. Just like automobiles. If I'd have known then as a kid what I know now, I would have treated that thing (and many other things) much better! Sorry I don't have a pic available. It's probably best though. If I posted a pic of that old Olds :laugh: , it would make you cringe! :shock:

    Never saw a three valve "Olds" before, is that legal.
    Noel, I have instructed my wife never to answer a phone call with a North Carolina area code! Told her it's from a bill collector. :Brow:

    Hey Dave,

    As I have always done, I started out with an Olds trumpet, but once I got my braces I couldn't pucker right! Moved up from the small block to the Big Block Olds!!! I played an Olds Susaphone for marching band and a couple of years in the pep band.

    And there you have it. Once an Olds man, always an Olds man. From the Olds trumpet to the sousaphone to a 69 Hurst. Sounds logical to me.

    I played e flat alto sax in grade school but switched to keyboard and guitar in Ann Arbor. Still have the guitar (Gibson C-1 Classic) and my Mom's Clavinova, but arthritis gets in the way when playing.

    What's a sousaphone?

    It's the "White" tuba that you see in marching bands. I played a "Coronet" and then went to a tuba/sousaphone in 8th grade. Quit it all after 8th grade and got into cars ......
