Will this radio fit in my radio spot??? / WIW
Well, i've been looking around for a radio for my uncut dash. This i guess is out of a 73-up truck or van from the hook ups in the back. Any idea if it'll fit in the radio whole on my 69??? I know i'll have to rewire a little. I got these pics emailed to me form a guy i'm looking to get it from. Is it worth the gas to go get it??

That looks like mid/late 70's into the 80's to me... if so, you'll have to trim the opening, that one is bigger.

Those are decent radios. I am not sure if it will fit though. i thought 73 and up trucks were a litle different. Out of a van should work though. On second thought let someone who knows for sure advise you

Trim how?? up and down?? I don't want a crappy sounding radio.
Are the OEM AM/FM radios worth gathering up?? Even for 70's tech they must work kinda well..
