My original '64 Devile radio has been rebuild and upgraded.  Can't wait to get in back in the car!

Can you provide details on the rebuild & upgrade. Does it now have bluetooth & all the bells & whistles?

Hi Kurt,

Yes, it has bluetooth with an external mic for hands free phone use, subwoofer out jacks, aux input...all the bells and whistles.   It was a bit pricey.  With shipping and tax it was $800 (Don't tell my wife, she'll have my head! ;-) 

I had it done at R & B Vintage Radio in Juliet, Tennessee.  There are several different packages available.  Richard is the owner.  Here's the website link:   https://www.randbvintageradio.com/

Mike,

     You deserve it!!!!

Very nice. I've heard about those upgrades. After you test drive it a while, let us know how you like it. I need to upgrade the stereo in mine. I have a Secret Audio in mine but it is now 20 years old and obsolete. I left the original AM radio installed in the dash. It still controlls the power antenna. 

Hiding the price from your wife reminds of a joke I heard: This man tells his friend "If I happen to die unexpectedly, don't let my wife sell these parts for what I told her I paid for them" LOL

I ran the new upgraded radio wiring today. The original harness won’t work, except for the power antenna. Now on to new dash paint and new chrome!

It looks great Mike.  A lot of work, but well worth it!

Looks great, I may do that to mine.

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments

Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?

My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.

Many thanks,

-Samu

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments

While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
