A cassette player in the dash - I love it - do you have a good variety of cassette tapes?

Oops ~ doesn't everyone have an AM-FM Cassette Player in the dashboard ?

I have a nifty thingie (Technical Term there) that looks like a Cassette but has a wire that plugs into a portable CD Player so I can listen to my vintage music , I still need to transcribe about 100 + Cassettes to CD's so I can play everything .

I see lots of really nice steering wheels here , being an old man , I'm partial to horn rings but Saturday I went to The Truck Shop and bought a brandy new repop green stock steering wheel , it's a fair bit darker that the original one but the HUGE gaping cracks in my otherwise cherry original steering wheel are driving my batty .

nothing wrong with a cassette player VWNate1, 8-tracks included, they have a certain at-home-feel in the 67-72 year trucks

I have quite a few from the 80's high school/college years. My kids think it's pretty cool to hear what the old man listened to when he was their age.

I have the same connector that VWNate1 has, but I plug it into my ipod and it works great.

the way i feel about it is these trucks are at that age that little details can make or brake it. if you see a 57 vette with a monza steering wheel and keystone mags you may like it but alot of people are going to go wtf. i use period car 67-72 vette,cheville,camero they look right but you wanna knock it out of the park go with mid 50s to mid 60s GM car and truck wheels. they are two tone with chrome horn ring and other chrome parts. my fav is 62 impala 57 cameo truck they look OEM to me and classie.

The red one is going in my '67 C1500 Super Custom SWB truck. The Saddle one is going in my '72 K2500 Sierra any day now:

the wooden one in my 68 c20....was there when i bought it.....


im kind of looking for a "period" 23 channel CB to run....I already have an old courier ML-100 to match it up with

I still listen to cassettes...sound as good to me now as they did 40 years ago. I never owned an 8-track because I thought cassettes were better. Guess I was right because I still listen to TDK tapes I recorded as far back as '76. I have a recording deck and can record tapes off of CDs and LPs. I am saving an Alpine AM/FM/cassette that will slip right into my '72 dash...unlike any CD player. I also have Bose speakers that fit under the seat and an Alpine amp. All this was in my '84 and it sounds killer! Putting a good stereo in these trucks was one of the first things I did,along with dual exhaust and cool wheels & tires. No need to start changing what has worked well since about day-1 if you ask me. Change just for the sake of change is not for me. If it ain't broke,don't fix it.

14" Foreversharp wheel for my GMC. I definately would not go any smaller than this. I have power steering so its ok. If I didnt have power steering I would go with a larger wooden Grant 3 spoke wheel like some of you have posted here.

In the truck (manual steering) from 64 Elco
