I'm looking for a decent looking factory AM/FM radio for a 67-72 truck. It doesn't have to work, just look good. Basically I need a decent core, so that I can send it off and get it upgraded with today's components. If you can help me, please let me know. thanks

Wow. You have been on the hunt for sometime now. Here's a TTT.

What's a TTT?

I'd give $200 for a decent core, or $600 for one that has been updated. Any leads??

There is a guy on evilbay periodiaclly that sells updated radios. I think they go in the 5-600 dollar range. Keep a lookout there.

I would give $5-600 for a decent upgraded radio, but would like to stay away from e-bay if at all possible. If anyone has any leads outside of e-bay, let me know. thanks

Check out this thread, if you haven't already, Lazyguard has a radio for sale.

Let me see if I can dig another one out for you. I've got 10 or so of them hidden away.

Let me know what you have and what you want for it, preferably with pics, and hopefully we can make a deal. thanx

kna - TTT means To The Top. I found your thread way down on the list and did a TTT. Look at the response since 5PM today.

Thats an AM only, but the conversion outfits can make them an AM / FM with the modern components.

If 1badss has 10 am/fm radios, there is no need for me to go looking for the one I have. :)

Have a nice original working AM/FM truck radio. Chrome is nice as is the dial. For this week only, I will include an original radio harness in excellent condition. $350. shipped to your door, insured.
Buying a shell and having it update to newer technology---it's still just a raido, no CD capability, that's why most guys put a am/fm in the dash and a High powered Stereo AM/FM/CD/Satellite/etc. in the Glove Box or even better yet, the CONSOLE!!

Does anyone have any leads on any leads on any radio restoration shops that restore these, or specialize in these?

Look in Hemmigs. There are several radio restoration outfits in there.

Let me see if I can dig another one out for you. I've got 10 or so of them hidden away.

Any luck with the digging?

I almost never listen to CD's b/c I usually put XM radio in all my vehicles. That's why I'm interested in having it updated with today's technology so I can transmit from the XM tuner to the radio then through the speakers.

If you get the chance, let me know what you have.

If anyone has any links to any of the restoration places that might be able to help, please post them here. Also, if anyone has one they want to sell, please send pics, pricing and a description to kna4977@hotmail.com thanks
