I'm glad I got mine a few years ago... scarily enough, it's not my
most expensive -8 (my first -8/a would qualify, but that's because I
threw a KT8A, 128K MOS board and an RL8A in it at mid-1980s prices,
hundreds of dollars per board). I've driven plenty of cars that
cost less than that particular -8/a.

I certainly have never seen one available.
