AM Radio Converted - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I could have sworn that I saw on this forum that there is a company that will take your AM radio and convert it so you can connect MP3 / iPod devices.
I looked through the Truck Audio section and saw what Frizzle Fry had done - looks great, just not sure if I have the patience to do that.
I like the way the old radio looks and was hoping to keep it that way. The PO had installed an AM/FM converter which works okay. (You can see it under the heater control).
I may have been dreaming that, any help would be appreciated.

The guy's name is Hagan and he's in PA. I'm not sure where my info is on it. I tried google and got nothing. There is a member in MD who bought a new am/fm repro they now make with all those added capabilities. The conversion gives you 180w. Hopefully someone else will fill in the blanks here.

This article in FAQ might be of interest.- "73-87 Delco radio with aux. input added" Yes its the wrong generation, but the same principal can be applied to your stock radio.
