Exclamation Replica Radio 67-72?

Is there any new replica AM or AM/FM Radios for a 67-72 Chevy Pick ups.
I Have seen a lot of "similar style" Radios but nothing close to the original look,
Surly with all the aftermarket parts that are being reproduce to be exact like fenders bumpers and other components, there must be some one to produce factory looking Radios. I have found some used ones that need to be fixed but the front chrome is usually pitted and in poor condition. Any Thoughts?

Also here is the link to the guy that builds them http://www.mikehaganantiqueautoradio...reo-radio.html his price is alot better than the ebay link you posted. Good Luck

Re: Replica Radio 67-72?

Why not just use an original radio and convert it? I had Gary convert my am radio to am/fm and I love it! He replaces all the internals of the radio so you can have bluetooth, iphone adaptability, and am/fm and it still uses the factory face plate of the original radio.
