Hi,


I would need some help with this.

There is a factory export 71 cuda conv just brought to Sweden from Schweiz and it should have 2 fendertags but the 2nd is missing. I would like to know what radio option the car should have.

It has 2 holes in glovebox for crossover box and 3 speaker dash.

How many "radio-codes" were avalible for this application in 1971?



Thanks
Nicklas

Is this the sassy grass green car? 4 speed, power windows?

If the 3 speaker dash is original, then radio options would have been

AM/FM thumb wheel radio

AM/FM thumb wheel radio with stereo cassette player

AM knob radio with stereo cassette player

If you need one of the AM radios with the DIN plug for cassette, please PM me

Yes -

As the ad is down for the car, I don't remember if it's equipped with a console.

The cassette players are the same, but the lower mounting shrouds and brackets are different depending on whether the car had a console or not. Also, if not a console car, there are at least 2 variations of brackets for the floor hump - one is offset to bring the unit closer to the driver (likely C-body)

Understood, thanks for the good info.

I have a picture,its a console car. If its the original console there should be mounting holes in it i guess..If it had the cassette player..
