In a package deal, all or nothing barn find deal I made, it came with 2 Blaupunkt AM/FM radios with factory power boosters. One is a black knob model, the other a white knob. I am wanting to keep one for my late '55 project bug but am wanting to know which would be more "correct" for the year. '55 with 3 fold, bullets, snowflakes, ect. I would rather go with the white knob model to match the dash knobs obviously...

The question that I would have for you is - are both of the radios all tube as in vacuum tube? If not, they are not the correct radio for that year and, as such, you can choose which ever one you want based on knob color.
