    Took the boys on a small day trip and stoped for a yard sale. This is what i got, 3 more key chain tag thingys. The best part, one is "Oldsmobile', nad one is "buick', the other is Torino. I think it was a good $1.50 spent.:2_thumbs_up_-_anima

    Allwready put the origonal keys on the tags, the Torino will wait for the rest.

    I have several of these 70's key rings and use them, several for work.... I can spot my keys a mile way;)

    Had a great day out also, nice walk in the woods, a park we had not been to in a couple years. Rascal, my lil' man has grown up, I'm not holding his leash....We keep it on him because of Griffin, it kills Rascal dragging it around but I think he knows it's all part of "been there" when it comes to "Griff":)

    How times change, Rascal was the " Snoozing" back in the day, now he's the "old guy" wide awake as the young punk is all "lunched':biglaugh:..I shot this pic over my shoulder while driving home.

    Great find for only $1.50. You can't beat that, for sure.
    Your "boys" are looking great. Looks like they had fun in the woods.

    Tedy... I am jealous... I own over 300, maybe even 400 keys, but I don't have any car related key chain tabs to go with any of them... Nice collection. :thumbs2:

    Wish I could figure out what I did with all of the keys that I collected when I was a kid. I used to be a real freak for collecting keys. Actually, I was a freak for collecting anything but I had a couple hundred keys. I never figured out where they went. I suspect my mother got tired of them and they got tossed.

    It never occurred to me to look for a period-correct leather fob for my rides. Cool idea FT! :2_thumbs_up_-_anima

    Vintage keys are nice, but the unit I fell in love with when I had it was the retractable Audi blade key....

    Nice. Now if only I could find one of those Torino ones, but in this style:

    I don't like the floppy thing on the leather myself. Had too many of them before get lost that way.

    I'm going to guess a yard sale in B.C.:p

    Cool collection Tedy, would you mind keeping an eye out for a Beaumont tag for me?

    Rev must have a big key ring? Probably all organized, alphabetically, with little white hang tags on a string. :biglaugh:
