Folks Of Interest RADIOS FOR 1940 FORD

What is the best Radio for a 1940 Ford that looks and fits in orginial location.

 

A stocker converted to all the modern conveniences.

 

Have done several this way-hooked up to stock antenna. Have also done this using a factory radio block off plate and hidden antennas (two) Still have the template somewhere.

 

^^^Excellent^^

 

Don’t they have a kit to put one behind the original speaker grille?

Edit#
Found it.

^^ those are a nice alternative as well, didn't fit in with my plan

 

I think it might work well with a double din stereo head, but I haven’t put a tape measure to it.

 

Just outstanding, of course we have learned to expect it from you.

 

I used to think that I HAD to have tunes in my cars, but now I'd bet I could count the number of times I've turned on the radio in the last five years, on two hands. I just don't need it any more, and in fact, it's kind of an annoyance. I'd rather hear the engine, and just enjoy the drive....

 

I'll never put a radio in my 41 Cadillac. I prefer the look of the original block off plate. If I want to listen to music, I'll just turn on the music on my smartphone and play it through a Bluetooth speaker.

Just went out and snapped this picture in the dark. Maybe later on today I will get ambitious and celebrate my birthday by breaking out the Chrome polish and cleaning up the interior Chrome. It's only been 35 years since I last cleaned it!
