working stock 71 GT radio

Graham · 12-08-2003

I am looking for a stock (working) 71 GT radio, Is there one out there with all the knobs?

Let me know how many you want. The price will be right.

Were these the same A.M. (only) Delco radio's that were in the Kadette's and the Rallye's?

In the GT's the delco radio had opel gt in the face of it. However some early GT's only said delco. I have never heard of anything else in a GT. I can't imagine the same one in a kadette or rallye.

The (AM) radios are all pretty much the same, but there are at least 2 different face plates. The early ones all said "Kadett Radio", even on the GT's and the later ones said something different. I have at least 6 of them that were removed at the dealership from cars who's purchasers didn't want to pay the extra for the radio. Not quite NOS, but pretty sure they'll work fine.

I also have 3 or 4 Datsun and Toyota AM/FM radios from the early '80's. They fit in the stock holes without modifying anything, look pretty close to the same, but let you listen to FM. One of the Toyota ones has a remote mount tape deck too, but I can't remember how well the tape unit worked. Another has a remote mount 8-track.....
