65 Barracuda radio model poll
My 64 Dart 170 Push (round) buttons also had Round buttons on the radio... (bought as a new car by me)... my 65 Dart GT 273 4 bbl came with Rectangle button radio as did my 65 'cuda "S"... a heater Delete car (Phx Az car) both of the 65's were 4 Speeds.... note: on photo, the "S" badge on ash tray is a magnet !
I suspect it was dealers who installed radios in many of the early cars (back then not every one wanted a radio) They would use up their inventory from the previous year on the first new next year models !!! Just a thought...
