I wish vintage cars were as reliable as my vintage audio gear.
Oldest 1958: all electro-voice drivers, 64 years old now (horns and woofer) crossovers, L-Pads within my main speakers. Recone kit and L-Pads competitively available. 30 wpc mono amps thar drove them originally. Crossovers tar filled cans, but replacement also readily available.
mx110z Tube Tuner/Preamp from 1964, 58 years old now, full service available, parts scarce.
2 Pairs of AR2ax from say 1968, 54 years old, rehab parts readily available.
R2R Tape Deck Teac X2000R, Orwellian year 1984, seems and behaves fairly new to me, only 38 years old
Vertical Turntable, also 1984, style looks more dated.
Hmmmm, 1984 was a good year, JVC Turntable/Plinth TT81 going strong.

Favorite car, still miss it, 1994 Jaguar XJS Convertible, Kingfisher Blue. I totaled ours in an auto accident, what a shame. I could buy another, it’s ’only’ 28 years old, but that age stops any daydreaming. link below, click ’images’ near the top of the page
magical metallic color: looked blue if blue sky, looked green if near grass
