Going through a box of stuff I brought home from my fathers house I found my first car phone.

It was some Exxon promotion circa 1989 or so.

That is something the youth of today will never experience , the joy of getting a phone shaped like something that is not a phone.  Or those phones with the Neon lights Spencer Gifts sold.

I saw a 928 car phone on eBay not too long ago. It was cool. I almost bought it but I don’t have a land line at the time

True. I have a cheese burger phone. Bought at a goodwill because it was like 2 bucks (this was back when goodwill was cheap.) I don’t think I’ve ever used it
