Radio delete

I have a 71 Cutlass Supreme. I am looking for information on a radio delete panel. I have searched the internet and the only thing I have found is a delete panel for the speaker in the dash. Does anyone know where I can get a delete panel for the radio in the dash? Or have any suggestions on how I can cover the radio hole in the dash?

Best bet is too advertise in both the NAOC and OCA monthly classifieds. When I needed a delete plate for my '51 88A (same as '49-'50) I ran ads in both of those magazines.
Funny story: A man replied to my ad and then sent me a brand new plate for $15.00 including shipping. When I asked where it came from- He said it was in his Uncle's sock drawer since he bought a new Olds 88 back in the early '50's. Sorry I couldn't help it - Just had to pass that along >
Good luck with your search.

He probably quadrupled his initial investment .

Properly called a radio opening filler plate, since a radio was an added cost option and never a delete option.

Nice covers with the same part numbers; paint to match as always in the parts books.
