Default Hey From South Joisey.....

I know it's spelled wrong. But some of my friends say it that way. I'm in South NJ . North Jersey says it like that. Nice Site. I'm into Marantz Vintage gear as well as Pro Audio Stuff. I was a Repair Tech who worked for Yamaha Pro Audio Division for over 30 years. My job was repairing Large format Audio Mixing Consoles used in Live concerts.

Alosa travelled quite a bit repairing and maintaining them in the field. Also worked with A Acts Like Frank Sinatra Etc as A-2.

I have Repair shop at home here loaded with most all I need. I'm only missing FM Alignment gear.

Also into Classic Corvette's. I own a 1965 C-2 Coupe powered by a GMPP ZZ 502 BB And FI and a 5 SP which I call My Wife and kid's It's out in the winter when the roads are dry about every two weeks. In the summer I'm out every week and hang with a bunch of Old F_ _ T car guys.

So looking forward to Hanging out here... Here's a Shot of my Wife and Kids.

Cool... I'm in Egg Harbor Township.... Right near Littles Dairy....
I worked in AC for many a year at the Golden Nugget (Steve Wynns Joint) Did Audio Repair and sound System design for them.

I hate that place and refuse to go back.

Yep The ride is cool ..The fuel consumption is like flushing a toilet

Well I guess I'm in the right Place.....My mission is to burn as much Gasoline (93 Octane) as possible and as much Natural Gas and Electricity as I Can. Also So far I have gotten 30 years out of my A/C house unit and 25 Years out of my NG house heater.

I miss Points and Plugs and feeler gauges. But Time moves on so I put a way a long time ago my Bell Bottom pants and moved up to Shorts and sweats.

When something breaks ...I just throw money at it to fix it. It's much cheaper then trying it by yourself....
