Did your car originally come with an AM/FM? If not, why not have an AM converted to an AM/FM? It will LOOK factory correct, you can hide a large amp under the front seat, and they come with an output plug so you can use an MP3 or like unit. The original AM/FMs have like a 2 watt amp in them and you are going to be disappointed by the sound.

Where can I get an AM converted? Sounds like a good deal. I really want the factory look of the stock radio. i was also thinking of getting one of those Secret Audio units.

tere are several. All use the same "board" for this conversion and most all charge like $400. or so for it.

My car did come with an am/fm stereo, and I'm trying to keep at least the interior stock other than a Sun Super Tach.

 

[440jimr]

Bump

 

[440jimr]

Still looking...would be willing to spend up to $400 for a decent one.

400..00 Keep going..there more like 600-800

 

[moparstuart]

saw one just sell on dodgecharger.com for 500.00

 

[440jimr]

Wow! I guess I didn't realize how much I would have to spend to get one. I'll keep looking I guess.

Haha, so they are I paid $850 of mine. It is a working restored original 69 tumbwheel unit prepared by Ward's Classic Radio, if I remember correctly. I surfed ebay for the hell of it for 16 months before another one surfaced. This one had a BROKEN tuning wheel and it went in the middle $600s

I have a non thumb wheel radio out of a 68 Fury would it be the same?

 

[wannadrag]

There is a company out there with new radios with the face made to look old like your original.The name escapes me at the moment though.I know they have them for most GM and ford cars but cant remember on the mopar stuff.

wards puts ipod jacks and coverts to fm for much cheaper then 600.00

I believe they do good work, cosmetically, at least because I have never played my radio yet. She's in a box waiting for the dash to be painted in Baltic Blue Suede.
