WIW 68/69 Barracuda AM?FM radio

[FJRdoc]

I have a thumbwheel AM/FM radio from a 68/69 Barracuda. It was purchased many moons ago to put in my Duster. I have since decided to upgrade the original AM radio. I understand that AM/FM radios were an uncommon option. I am thinking about selling it to fund more work on my car. Any idea what price they bring?

First thing is verify it works properly.

Well I have one restored by a professional restorer of radios and its sitting on my shelf ready to go. I recently sold the car I had planned on using it in. I would take $700.00 for it and not a penny less. Of course the buyers going to get a radio that they know is in working order.

They are pricey but now that the reproduction radios that have the correct face and thumbwheels with modern electronics and other features are out I personally would rather opt for one of them.

As far as I know, there aren't reproduction A body thumbwheel radios.......at least I haven't seen them.

Here is the 1968 B body AM/FM reproduction radio. I was told the A body radio is in the works.

You can also get your AM radio converted to modern technology AM/FM with 180w instead of the low watt monotone original radio for $439 in most cases.
