Hello,
I want to ask if someone have a picture on a radio mouted in a standard barndoor, or if somebody can tell me where they used to sit? Maybe if someone have an old picture from a car radio catalog?
Thanks, Mathias |

A popular option on a '53 was to replace the 25hp motor with a high-power valve radio. Option code M050 (only available on RHD barndoors).
