Re: am/fm/8 track?

86swb,
My 1975 came from the factory with the am/fm 8 track in it. I have since swapped it out for some thing more "modern." I have boxed and stored the 8 track in an out building, I will see if I can dig a picture up for you.

Re: am/fm/8 track?

According to some papers I found, my 78 had one installed at the dealer when new. Not sure when they stopped installing 8-tracks.
