Here is my one box, and a bunch of 80s freestyle bikes :)

I'm hoping some of you guys can appreciate this!

That is my 3rd gen Lasonic TRC-931. It is joined by an 84 Hutch Pro Racer, an 85 Skyway Streetbeat, an 88 GT Pro Performer, an 86 Diamondback Mike Dominguez Strike Zone frame set (I also have an 87), an 86 GT Pro Performer frame set, an 86 GT Pro World Tour frame set, and a one-off custom Auburn Street Magician. I think they all make a nice team!

Very nice love the Marshall amps .

Thanks! I built 2 of those, actually. One of them is a 68 spec Plexi clone (12,xxx serial, like EVH), one of them is a 69 spec plexi clone, and one of them is a real 74 50 watter. They don't see much use anymore, since most venues here in NYC have really good backlines.

Yeh nice amps. My brother in law works for them...he makes the bespoke one off amps for various famous people. He got Slash to sign his car dash a while back lol

Doubled the value of the car lol

Oh yeah! One of them is a Lafayette from I believe 74 or 75. I just fixed it up and gave it to a friend of mine who didn't have a good receiver. The BIG one is a 1976 Fisher 1080 in perfect shape. It KILLS, dude! The turntable is a 1978 Fisher MT-6225, which is super cool...it doesn't use a belt! It's magnetic drive!

Nice group of stuff you have there. I'm a sucker for BMX and blasters.

Oh Wow! Boomboxes and bikes go so well together, I only have 2 GT's, an 87
Hawaiian blue Performer and a chrome 93 Performer, your collection is sweet!

 

[Lasonic TRC-920]

Righteous Display!

 

[TommyVonVoigt]

Thanks everyone! I'm glad you guys all dig the collection! I actually lost all my childhood / teenage freestyle bikes in one fell swoop back in 96, and spent all the years since searching off and on, trying to get them all back again. These are all carefully restored, and built up with all the best stuff.

I'm coming to find a similar vibe between collecting BMX / freestyle, and collecting vintage boomboxes. And yeah, they really do seem to go well together!

Nice BMX !!!! In 1984 French boys were crazy about discovering the first freestyle show in Bercy with RL Osborne, Eddie Fiola and the Duke
