A noble pursuit to be sure. Wouldn't that be cool to see those glowing tubes in the Cruiser at night? I'm not sure what the reliability would be. I have a tube headphone amp that is sweet, but it has to stay put by the bed.

My mother-in-law says she used to have a record player in her car, so I guess if there's a will...

The whole thing would be about powering it up....inverter? Super-Alternator and extra battery? hmmm....
