Don't see a NOS FM radio too often... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**DeadheadNM** · 11-04-2017, 12:59 PM

Not mine. Neat piece: https://www.ebay.com/itm/NOS-Slideba...pZ-LCN&vxp=mtr

**jocko** · 11-04-2017, 01:43 PM

Oh my. I want it. Gonna watch just to see what the bid goes to.. looks like reserve met or there wasn't one. Very cool.

**71CHEVYSHORTBED402** · 11-04-2017, 01:51 PM

Saw that. What's the deal with the what-u-call-it mounted on the side?

**DeadheadNM** · 11-04-2017, 01:53 PM

Speaker. Knobs. Whole enchilada there. I've been good this year guys and Christmas is approaching

That’s funny Pete. I was thinking when I read your original post, I’m pretty sure I know where it’s new home is going to be! Even at the buy it now price that isn’t a bad deal at all in my book. You almost never see the factory fms and too have the whole thing brand new uninstalled in gm packaging... yea enough said!

**jocko** · 11-04-2017, 05:54 PM

What Buy It Now price?? I only saw a $520 current bid... HELP ME!

I'm on mobile and eBay sucks on mobile. Is there a buy it now price?

BLT gmc · 11-04-2017, 07:23 PM

No buy it now. I think the auction ends in 5-6 days

OARNGESI · 11-04-2017, 07:39 PM

I bet it brings 1500plus

**Ironhorse** · 11-04-2017, 08:25 PM

$530 at 7 bids. I've got that much in having a USED one re-built. It's nice but is not NOS in shrink wrap. Be interesting what the ending bid goes to.

John H. · 11-04-2017, 08:52 PM

I am in, they will earn it!

John, I should have known I was bidding against you!

52napco · 11-04-2017, 10:28 PM

I'm thinking $2000 myself.

70LonghornCST · 11-05-2017, 02:21 AM

Very nice!

57taskforce · 11-05-2017, 11:15 AM

Indeed I miss read my phone, definitely no buy it now. I just glanced at the page. Even if it went to 1-2000 how often do we ever see something like this?? I hope who ever ends up wiith it enjoys it, it’s a very nice piece.

CG · 11-05-2017, 12:37 PM

Make sure you post some nice pics of it when you get it home John (I have faith).

**jocko** · 11-05-2017, 12:47 PM

Hopefully it still works...

You're right, probably doesn't work. So far $760 for a radio that doesn't work

**DeadheadNM** · 11-05-2017, 01:15 PM

It's not terribly humid in Northern NM and the chassis looks a lot less rusty than some of mine. If acquired locally at a small dealer it may have come from Taos. I'll bet it works.

**72ironmike** · 11-05-2017, 01:16 PM

Can't think of many NOS pieces more rare for our trucks ?

**Jason Banks** · 11-05-2017, 02:57 PM

Maybe it wasnt AM/FM but someone posted a really low mileage truck on here one time that had a new in box radio still sitting in the floor board. I think the story was a farmer had a truck that broke down in town and he bought a new one to drive home. He didn't really need it after his truck got fixed so it sat in the barn. Or maybe that was the story from another really low mileage truck.

Nah, it doesn't work. Besides, look at the rust

Seriously, IMO if it doesn't work then it's a manufacturing defect. While this would be cool to own, it's not for me nor a risk I would take. I like my AM radios just fine.

Still curious what's mounted onto the RH side. Looks like a vent system of sorts. How does the radio mount?

**4X4GMC1972** · 11-06-2017, 04:35 PM

Looks like the FM indicator will be fallen off by the time someone receives it.

**71CHEVYSHORTBED402** · 11-07-2017, 01:57 PM

You guys are doing a nice job with this bidding

$1055 with three days to go.
