Re: NEW AM/FM Radio
X5,but they now sell them for $649. Just don't buy from Classic. They've tacked on an extra $80 over Hagan's price. The cost of one stop shopping

Re: NEW AM/FM Radio
I wanted the 'stock' look for my Jimmy, so I bought one. Looks awfully nice in the dash. I think I paid right at 600$. It's a lot but, oh well.

Re: NEW AM/FM Radio
i agree, the original i just bought (very nice, by the way, from dave) wasn't inexpensive, (but a very good price for a good condition original AM/FM), and when it's all said and done, it will sound like it did in 71. And that's what I personally want... I'm "good with that". But if you want original looks AND all the modern twinkies AND great sound, well, these (the new ones) are pretty sweet radios I believe. I'd probably buy from hagan also if I were in the market - he's been around a long time and I've seen some of his other work - top notch.
btw, I'm looking fwd to putting mine in when I re-do my interior (SOME day) - so I'll put in a word in for member DAVE - he was great to work with, stood by his product when I had a minor snafu with it on my end (i.e. fixed it for free), and the price was good in my book. (Thanks Dave). |

Re: NEW AM/FM Radio
This is cool. I've got a '69 with a stock AM Radio. Look at the top rock songs for 1969. Some really good impactful stuff

Re: NEW AM/FM Radio
I'm really struggling with the audio part of my build. I like my music(hair metal) loud and obnoxious. I don't want to cut my dash, but I want to be able to use my Ipod. I really have no need for the FM/AM radio, but I still don't want to pay $175 to $695 for a two knob stereo that looks factory with those MP3 capabilities.
Especially when I can cut the dash and spend $100 on a decent modern Kenwood/Pioneer product.

Re: NEW AM/FM Radio
That was probably the option I was leaning towards.
