The speed channel actually had a program on car audio recently. There was a company that you could send your classic car radios off to and they would completely gut and rebuild them using modern components. They claimed the sound the radios produced was comparable or better than aftermarket head units. I think it's a great answer to the dilemma many DeLorean owners have regarding wanting to keep a stock appearance versus acceptable sound. I believe this is the website for the company they featured: http://www.antiquecarradio.com/ I'm sure they could fix your radio Rich... maybe even make it better than it was new!

Even if you test it it could die on you as soon as you get home. You have to figure you average out on a place like E-bay. Some of the items I have bought/sold went for more money than I expected and some went for less. Some were in nicer condition than I expected and some worse. The good news is the radio can be fixed. Look in Hemmings Motor News under "services". David Teitelbaum vin 10757 _____________________________________________________________ Buy and sell stocks in NFL teams!
