Need custom stereo ideas

I have a 1970 that i will have to have some jams in for the maiden trip when I geterdone. I hate to destroy a nice truck for tunes but It Will Be Loud (the 454) and I love my music as much as this truck. I'm just fishing for ideas we all may appreciate.

This one is operated via a steering column mounted remote.

Re: Need custom stereo ideas

Mine has a wired remote. It works just fine with the glovebox closed. Here's another option if you don't want a wired unit.

Re: Need custom stereo ideas

I have a glovebox setup in both my trucks...courtesy of KelsFine69. They are beautiful. I built a voltage spike prevention harness and then installed an IR repeater that allows me to operate my units with the glove box door closed. I still have the stock AM radio in both my trucks so everything appears stock.

Here is the link to the original (long) thread:
