and on that note, old U-joints don't always like changes in their operating angles, so you might develop minor vibrations that are only cured by installing new joints.

it's the human condition. we tend to glom on to the music we experienced in our formative teenage years. which is weird when you think about the fact that listening to music whenever you want (radio, records, CDs, etc) is a quite recent development in the human timeline.

can't hurt to try a junkyard. any excuse to stop by and see what they have in stock. but yeah, the new ones will be... not 30 years old.
