Not mine, just ran across it. It appears that it would fit in our dash with no problems, and one can clearly see the "delco" script on the lens. Maybe this was a dealer installed radio or something? Never seen one like it, thought it was kinda neat.

That is a cool old unit, I wouldn't hesitate to clean 'er up and put her in a factory style resto.

I have seen those before.Seems like maybe they were an early 60's model like in an impala.Not real sure,but seems like they used one similar in those cars.I like the Chevrolet on the bottom.

Here's the link to one I found interesting, it looks just like the am radio for our years of trucks but has a black face.

I've seen some of these trucks have a black face heater control.What years/package did that come in?Maybe that's a radio for that trim pack.

I have a black faced radio in my truck. It came out of a mid to late 70's 1 ton box truck. A buddy of mine thought I'd like it...and he was right :P

The black-faced heater control is for the 67-68 trucks. 69-72 used the shiny one.
