Ok well I gave it a shot with my friends SV650. First ones definitely better but I think still could’ve benefited from more light, especially from the front left of the bike and facing down from the rear to give the dark seat more light (any other criticism is welcome)

$15 urban ore find, 1955 silvertone radio that works perfectly! Sadly it only picks up AM radio so I’m limited to the occasional sports game, Christian conservative talk, and a handful of ethnic stations

Aquired some really cool today- a Bell System Charge-A-Call Payphone! It’s like a normal payphone, but instead of coins it only uses collect and credit card. These only were built for a few years prior to the 1984 breakup of Bell

After the @wtyppod.bsky.social episode on the Marlboro Unlimited I was inspired to buy myself some of the vintage Marlboro sweepstakes merch- it doesn’t even smell like cigarettes!

I own a payphone now! It’s missing most of the internals but I’m working on aquiring the parts I need to make it a fully functioning payphone I can use as a landline
