    Awww dang So Any for sale?

    I bet the 8 track was an upgrade... Would you part with it?

    What about the Dash piece behind it, was it different or square cut?

    And your right what a coincidence

    anybody know the history, Back in the 70's I bet there wasn't too many auto manufactures offering their names on Radios. What would have come in these trucks Factory

    I dont know if it would even be worth the cost of shipping, the FM was about dead, no clue if the 8 track or AM even worked. The dash behind it was the small rectangular hole in the middle and the 2 small round holes on the side for the posts

    Thanks Bro my main thoughts at this time are just looks, What Brand is the radio maybe I can find one local?

    And I do think it's cool that we all have the same avitar

    its an AR Automatic Radio SPX-2369, from googling it seems that was the standard brand for the 8 tracks being put into cars back in the day although Im not seeing that exact radio
