Re: Bowtie radio

Leon, not a '57 passenger car. My '57 has the original radio in it still and it has a Chevrolet " Bowtie " emblem on the face. Also the '57 radio has a some what slanted face profile, not flat like the on in the pic. Will post up pics of my '57 radio tomorrow. That's an old school radio for sure tho as it has the Civil Defense radio station emblems on the dial.

Michael, think that may be a bit newer, maybe early '60s Chevrolet radio. Not sure when the Civil Defense emblems were dropped from radio face dials.

Yeah, I wasn't 100% sure. I sold most of my Tri-Five Chevy stuff years ago.
