Here is a pic for posterity and pretty neat to see. Wonder if they came in Magnum or V-12?


Thanks for Posting, Bob

Those are pretty slick. I bet you could have a jeweler put something like that together for a couple hundred bucks. Thanks for saving the pic Funky

I would need to for sure - my tee shirts and sweat shirts don't have cuffs nor collars to hold a tie in place.

My last day to wear cuff links was when I got married in 1973. Last day for a tie clip was three years later when I quit my job in the engineering department at Anheuser-Busch in St. Louis.

I have several sets of Cuff links, I use them a lot when I was in coats and ties. I still have several shirts in the closet that need link. I've made up several of the sets myself with different things, including nautical and automotive themes.

I remember my Dad had a tie clip. I always liked to borrow it when I was a kid and hold my clip-on tie in place.

Those are interesting accessories, but for me, my Sunday go to meeting clothes, are just clean work clothes.

I worked in the office for most of my jobs, was a Purchasing Agent, wore a tie most places but never needed cuff links.
But those V6 cuff links & tie clasp look great! Dad had a '65 Buick Special for a work car that was mine to use till I got my own car, 225 Cid V-6 made enough horsepower & torque, and sounded just like a BIG GMC but that Power-Glide sucked a LOT of performance. Even a Three on the Tree would have been an improvement. The '66 Impala with 250 Blue Flame 6 and Power glide was even worse. The '60 Dodge Dart with 225 slant 6 with a push-button Torque-Flight was actually an improvement!
Always liked the sound of an odd-fire V-6. When GM messed with them with off-set crankpins, or 60 degree blocks they lost the rumble I liked.
