I need a radio

I have decided to put a backup/stereo system in my 58 truck, does anyone have a non-working stock radio or know where I can look? looked on normal places like E-bay but have not found one for a a decent price.Just need to fill the hole

You did great at $25. Nearly free.

I looked and looked and finally paid $120 for a non-working one because it had good chrome on the face surround. Kills me I spent that much.
