Hello, been away awhile and could use some help. I have an original am radio on my 76 and I wanted to have it converted and rechecked. There used to be a guy on the forum that advertised on the vendor list, seemed to have done a bunch with good results. I can’t seem to find his info? Any suggestions? Thx, Zonian, Jacksonville

Thanks! I have the retro radio in now, it’s fine, but I’d like to put the original back in with modern guts. Trying to keep the truck as original as I can. I’ll check out retro com.... there used to be a guy on the site that did them.....guess he has moved on... thx again.

I used turnswitch.com
Looks the same all new guts, Bluetooth, am/fm, aux input, plus reads flash drives and you can answer your phone through it.

My sister's 63 Falcon had a little AM-FM converter box under the dash. Not too noticeable and pretty cheap if you don't want bluetooth or anything. Just sits inline with the antenna wire. They also sell bluetooth FM transmitters that just plug into a cigarette lighter for cheap if you're using it for music.
