Listers,

I checked into the feasability of converting my AM Triumph radio for 
my spitfire to a more modern AM/FM with CD player capability.  There 
is a company call Classic Car Radio that puts in all new components 
but leaves the exterior of the radio looking 100% original.  The idea 
sounds great and the options they have available sound terrific also. 
But the cost is just a little higher than I can justify for a car 
radio.  The cost for converting the above radio runs $1295.00.  If I 
could justify a $1300 radio in my $10,000 dollar restoration I think 
I would do something like that.  As it is the cost is just to 
prohibitive.  I might have to tinker with it my self and see what 
parts I could fit inside from some newer radio.  

Just thought I would let you know whats out there.
