On the radio, there are some companies that rebuild your original with all new internals to have a modern system with that original look. That's what I would do if I had an original radio, but I don't think Frankentruck came equipped with a radio, and the PO hacked my dash a little
Thanks Christian...I will look into that and see if I can find a vendor that doesn't want an arm and a legs to refurbish the radio

I would do as Christian said...I would get the radio rebuilt to modern conversion...to have the old school look with modern technology. That is what I am planning on doing one day.
Yeah Andy will have to see if I can find someone to do it and a cost....may not be cost effective but doesn't hurt to check.

Not a lot done today...we had Church work day so spent most of the day doing spring cleaning around the Church......But when I got home the ole mailman brought me my refurbished locks and new keys from the Lockdoc...Mr Leon.

The key on the right is the original key...Mr Leon had some original blanks and cut me two keys along with redoing my lock cylinders and re keying the glove box lock I got from Winston...definitely no slop in the locks now....
