Barn find boomboxes? Anyone?

[blu_fuz]

I know we have goodwill, flea, rummage, craigslist, and freebie boomboxes..... I have a true "barn find" boombox like American Picker's style. Right out of the barn, introducing the first Boomboxery "barn find" thread/boombox . Post pics of your barn finds

She isn't a looker, but I had to rescue it..... the people were living in a camper because they were so poor and the house was full of garbage and animals. I bought the barn find box and another bbx that has layers of cat dander on it. Gave them money for the pair and they really just wanted to give them to me for free.



Barn find:

This is the cat dander box that was inside the house.

I don't know whether to cry or cheer, leaving a box in the barn seems so disrespectful.
Congrats on the NEW type of score.

well you know that Roman finds those once in awhile then turn them into some hot rod boombox

I didn't know Craig and GPX were around making boxes

I use to race off-road... and have a lot of friends around Bulgaria from the trips. One of them found this in a barn in really small village (around 20 houses).

That Craig boombox looks like sh** warmed over. I keep waiting for Mike and Frank to find a boombox just to see what they say about it.
