67 - 72 AM/FM radio - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Was there any difference in the 67 through 72 truck radios, or was it the same radio? I know the difference between van and truck, but don't know about differences through the years. How much are they selling for?

I know the 67 radios have a smaller knobs for tuning and volume. And am/fm came out in 71. I havn't seen a differance in the am radios 68-72. As for price...... I've bought them as low as $2 and seen an am/fm for $1000.00 (don't know if it sold) I paid $75 for an am/fm that I found at a swapmeet, (And it worked) doupt I'll ever find a deal that that again.

There is no difference in the radios themselves, only the knobs. Some AM radios will have the standard (all black) knobs, but I doubt if any AM/FM radios had them since they were an option. Price depends on condition. I've seen AM radios go for $10-$80, and AM/FM go for $200-$800.

anyone know what the option code for these was, and just how rare?
I bought mine for $100 at a swap meet but have only seen two

U69 is the rpo code for the AM/FM
U63 is the code for the AM radio.
