These sound like Custom Autosound units...Unfortunately they are the only
source for a modern radio that fits in the old truck dash cutout. The 7"
shaft spacing is the problem. They really aren't a bad unit, but after you
pay $250 for something that looks like it's worth about $49.95, It kind of
leaves a bad taste. There is a guy who travels the Winter season swap meets
in Florida who takes original radios, guts them and converts them to AM/FM
100watt CD units (with remote changer) - Way cool, but way expensive too.
