Radios For Our Trucks
I looked at that RestoSound radio because it's $300 and isn't offered in a format that has a CD player and the USBs don't work with an Ipod...does any one know of any modern radios that fit our stock radio hole because I don't want to cut my dash....or does anyone have any pics of a good under the dash radio setup? my old 72 had one in it but it was GHETTO!! looked shoddy hopefully somebody has advice

Re: Radios For Our Trucks
Have you got the stock radio? There are a couple of guys in Florida that will rip the guts out of your existing radio, and make the old AM radio an AM/FM with RCA outs to connect your IPOD. Looks stock and sounds waaay better.
I got these two names from : www.antiqueautoradio.com Gary Payman 941-371-8924 Dave Frazee 800-880-1409 Have not done business with either, but have talked to Gary. Seems ok on the phone |

Re: Radios For Our Trucks
Frizzle Fry modded a stock radio to accept an MP3 player a while back. It takes a little know-how; here's the link:

Re: Radios For Our Trucks
It has the casset and aux for an mp3 connection just like the one from Manes, it also comes with the wire to connect your Mp3
