Default Re: CB Rig collectors

I'm not a collector but I used to repair a lot of CBs in my student days. I have kept hold of a few nice export CBs, mainly purchased when they were cheap to buy. Most are boxed, unmodified and some are as new. I haven't unpacked them to look at them for many years but I think I have the following:

I think I have two or three of the classic Cobra 148GTL-DX mk1 all as new unmodified and boxed.

I have two of the mk2 Cobra 148GTL-DX versions both unmodified and boxed and one is as new.

One Superstar 360FM mk2 unmodified and boxed and in very good condition.

Somewhere I have a Uniden 2830 10m 'CB' that still had the accessories sealed in plastic. It has an early serial number and it looks and feels brand new. I also have the later mk2 version in the form of the President Lincoln. This radio is original and in excellent condition but not quite as good as the other examples above.

I think I have a scruffy Major M588 up in the loft and also a Fidelity 2001FM UK FM CB somewhere.
