Hi Guys ,

Here is my latest ,i picked this up at my local trash and treasure on sunday, yesterday in Ozland .Toshiba RT-8340S BOMBEAT 9 . I did a bit of a search could not get a picture of this box anywhere or any info .has anybody got one of these , sounds really good , has a little bit of damage to the silver trim to the top of the box . Radio works well has the tip of the aerial missing (whats new ) the tape deck was not working so i cleaned it and put a new set of belts works a treat. If you know of another let me know

Cheers all.

not a big fan of the "plastic grill" covering but Toshiba's are rock solid machines. Congrats on the rescue!

Yes this box is solid , and very heavy not a great looker in the eyes of most collector, but from the point of rareity it's the first one i have seen
