Hi!
Anyone in here who owns such a radio/speaker who could help me out and send me the measurements/dimensions of a 1948 Oldsmobile Delco Deluxe Radio?
I suppose getting hold of such a radio/speaker over here in Sweden is, pretty hard ... maybe impossible. And to buy one from the US will be expensive thanks to shipping and customs rates. And, it would be pretty unnecessary since all I want is the measurements and angles of this radio/speaker module so that I can build my version to hide modern front speakers.
Thanks!
There is one for sale on ebay for $39. You m,ight try contacting the vendor and see if he will measure it for you
I have actually already tried that, before I started this thread, but haven't heard anything back ... So, it's a good idea but so far I'm still waiting.

Example images found on eBay.
So far, no luck on finding whatever the measurements might be, but I think I've found the actual model, 982454, that was used for more equipt samples on cars like my 68.
That said, this is rather the speaker dimensions I am looking for, I guess ... Another eBay example:
That looks like the radio from your first post. Are you going to buy that manual?
No, I don't think so. My economy is currently weak and since I doubt this little folder contains what I'm after, $40 feels unnecessary.
Instead of building a copy of that original piece, I might cheat and instead install a regular Singel Stereo Speaker behind the dash grill.
