Subject: Re: [Tigers] Motorola radio restoration
I purchased a similar kit several years ago and had the radio rebuilt =
with digital AM/FM/Aux components and have never looked back. I saved =
the original internal organs for posterity. I used a shop in Crystal, =
MN that was recommended by our MN Street Rod Association. I'm sure you =
could find someone more local to you.
BTW, you can get a single speaker with dual cones to handle the stereo =
wiring if you choose to go that direction. I think it was the late, =
great Steve Laifman that recommended using small marine speakers under =
the dash on port and starboard to expand the stereo sound. I did this =
and love the results. And no one can tell by looking at the set up. =
Folks love the look of the LAT-72 installed at shows!
