Re: 12 grand radio
I've got that exact radio in my 32 except my radio looks like it's brand new. However, I am missing the correct running board antenna. I would put a running board antenna on my car if I found one just for originality but, frankly, those running board antennas are garbage. They are fairly obstructed by the running board and they really come and go depending on the direction you are traveling and whether the antenna is aligned with the radio station's radio waves. I've heard you can turn the 'chicken wire' in the car top into a good antenna if you isolate it from the rest of the car body. I might look into that. There also used to be an aftermarket kit back in the day that you could buy to turn the rear-mounted spare tire wheel into an antenna. I don't know how well they work but it's kind of an intriguing idea as long as I don't have to drill anything on my car. No drilling! I don't do anything on my car that cannot be absolutely undone back to original
