Gauge Package

NWYenko,
I sent away for a catalog from a company called "Radio Man", he is out of Texas. If you get a old stock GM/Delco AM unit (send a broken one with a good face/cosmetics) and send it to him he will convert it to a AM/FM or AM/FM CD changer (Changer to be located somewhere else in the car). The units are cool and look more original than the "Custom Autosound" units.

Jim;
I just purchased an NOS AM radio, with the green lettering, on EBAY for $95. I thought that was a pretty good deal, but won't know for sure until it arrives. I felt that the repair bill on one of my used ones would be about the same. I would watch EBAY for them, they appear frequently but can go much higher.

Andrew, Tell me more! Tell me more!! I assume you have an address. I need a radio that works. I rented a new Taurus in Phoenix and drove 4 miles before I realized the radio didn't work and returned it immediately!!

i agree with marlin on the reliability factor on the gauges.i've had a set of S&W gauges in my deuce close to 20yrs now.i guess it's just a piece of mind thing!!motors can get expensive!!!!it's great to hear you are planning to drive&enjoy your car!!i tend to be a little more careful nowadays,but that accelerator still gets pressed down pretty hard!!best of luck with your car!!!

I will look for the catalog when I get home. I think that I originally got the # out of an ad in "Classic Truckin'". The gentleman that I spoke to (when I called) gave me the impression that he is a one manned shop. He was very friendly and knowledgeable and sent me a nice, well presented catalog. The shop does go under the name "Radio Man" and is from Texas. I thought that it was cool also. I was happy to see that the "Deuce" went to someone that will enjoy it , and is also in the "Super Car Club". Congrats on your purchase. I had one of my buddies take a picture of me with your car, not knowing that you bought it. I will try to find that # tonight.

My uncle just purchased a radio from Radio Man for his '68 Z28. Very nice quality and sound. I couldn't beleive it. They go for about $350. To me, there is nothing like seeing that factory radio in the slot. Just my $2.
