There is another rather great free distortion plugin called silverspike RubyTube. It may not sound exactly like tubes (although I think it's as good as Antares Tube for example), but with just a bit of drive, I think it's very nice.

  Thanks for the tip! 

  I recently found a vinyl simulator called Izotope which is a free
  plugin for WinAmp. Most of the settings tend to distort a little but
  the grit is certainly there. This DSP plugin can be combined with the
  disk writer plugin to route the output straight to a WAV file.
