Re: 51 Shorty

Managed to break my hand a couple weeks ago so it might be a while before I get to tear into the truck. Gives me time for research I suppose.
So let’s start here - In the threads that I have read thru, I have not spotted where this radio was mounted. This dude is heavy! My scale shows 15 lbs. Where does it go? No holes in dash for it.
