Factory AM radio converted to AM/FM stereo with outputs

This factory 4-5-6 Chevy truck AM radio has been converted to AM/FM stereo with RCA inputs and multi-channel speakers. I sent to a fellow that does these conversions on classic auto/truck radios. Includes installation/connection/operating instructions. Also includes factory chrome knobs. Once installed this unit looks factory stock, but offers FM stereo and use of your iPod.

$395.00, shipped.

I found the outfit that did my factory AM radio conversion.

The company is: Antique Automobile Radio, Inc.

Their e-mail address is: sales@antiqueautomobileradio.com

Their website is: www.antiqueautomobileradio.com

They are out of Tampa, FL and their phone # is: 800-933-4926

I am not affiliated with them in any way, however I have used them and I am very happy with the work they did converting my factory AM unit to AM/FM stereo with RCA outputs.

They also have a nice little news letter I get from time to time.

After making this post, I found the name and number of the fellow that did the actual conversion. Here it is:

Jim 618-526-8492

Your favorite Christmas songs would sound quite festive on this radio.

Please let Santa know you want this thing, so I can make sure it in on his sleigh on Christmas Eve.

Happy Holidays!

Re: Factory AM radio converted to AM/FM stereo with outputs

This unit was going in one of my projects, but I went with a standard, factory AM unit with chrome dash knobs.

I have purchased a few Custom Autosound USA-5 units and they are not worth the money. The bezel isn't close to the factory bezel, the knobs are not the same and the power and clarity are average for a unit in this price range.

Please let me know if I can help you with this item or other 4-5-6 Chevy truck parts in the future.
