The unit in my 69 GTS has patent pending stamped in it with an ink stamped part number. Did it show up on the broadcast sheet? Was it available with both am and fm? How long was it available? How rare is it?

I don't remember the reverb units being popular after 1965, the new FM radio and AM radios with built in tape players where taking over in the mid 1960s I'm no authority on those type options, just passing on what I remember from those days long gone by
Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964. (Old F--t, Huh)

The reverbs used a spring/transducer unit from Hammond Organ. And yes it would TWANG if U hit a bump and radio ON but not tuned to a station... Most of the aftermarket units were sold under the Motorola brand, don't know about the Mopar version most likely built by Motorola... Back in 66 the retail price of the Motorola including (1) 6x9 speaker was $29.95..
Just my $0.02...

I had what I believe was a dealer installed one in my 67 Coronet. In was kind of net to play with at first, but after a while I never turned it on because sound was pretty cheesy.
