I wish I had my Triumph Spitfire again. I loved that car. British Racing Green, toggle switches.
A Sunbeam Tiger. Bought it in '77, as a two year project. But in '79 I met my wife (married in '82)...
I still have both. The Tiger sits in the garage waiting to emerge again in the spring, and, of course, plotting ways to soak up more of my money on maintenance and "improvements".
My #2 son and daughter were both born in Taiwan. Also have the stereo cabinet and china hutch (both made of teak wood) which we purchased while stationed there. The stereo cabinet has been converted into a computer center.

Every photo print, slide, and negative I made (for my personal life) during that entire decade
All my LPs and cassettes from the ‘70s.
Air check tapes of my radio shows from college and the two years after
My Nikon FTn — obsolete, but a great conversation piece (I inherited it, so it was free!)
A selection of books from college
Some tools
I could list more, but those stand out.

A pair of JBL Century 100’s.
Bought them as a graduation present for myself (more than $100.00) and still use them.
Those were popular studio monitors then! I used them in a radio station commercial production room in 1977. Great sound...

Dinner date and drinks for less 100.
My Olympus 35RC I purchased at the PX at Ft Hood TX. Less than $100. I still use it from time to time.
