Radio for 73 Cutlass...need some input please
I posted a while back and lost everything in a computer problem and can't find my post from before so please bear with me.
I have a nice all original 73 Cutlass supreme...it's got the original am radio ..no stereo and I am not sure if one or 2 speakers under dash. I'd like to put in an am/fm that sort of matches the style...I'd also like to find an 8 track player just for fun on cruises.....I hate to cut into things much but guess I could have 2 speakers installed (one in each kick panel)...
Any thoughts of a factory type radio that simulates the look of the original and thoughts on an 8 track player (maybe in glove box?)...I'm going to have to have the work done as I'm 80 and stove up pretty bad...many thanks

Could always go with a factory AM/FM/8-track stereo radio that came in some of these '73-'77 "A" bodies if you're looking for originality. Obviously, sound quality isn't what today's radios bring...but, I run one in each of my vehicles and they do okay.

Why not put speakers in the rear deck.. You can do it and it not look like you have, but it was oem.. Without the speaker grills.. just little 1/16th holes punched in the deck fabric
3.5" in dash both sides, and 6x9 in rear deck..
