    Thought some of you would enjoy a few CB radio ads from the "days gone by". Some of you may have owned or knew of someone who owned one of these at one time.

    This Cobra 24 ad is from September 1969:

    And this one is from June 1971:

    All of you have heard of a Cobra 29...how about a Cobra 28?:

    [​IMG]

    Of course if you're still hooked on that Cobra 29, maybe that's a good thing since they've been around since the mid 70's....

    1976 model Cobra radio:

    [​IMG]

    Need a CB for your car but wished they made an in dash model? Well now you can have both...to include a cassette deck! From April 1978:

    Some how I think this led to the decline of GE's CB radio line.
