   Here is an original radio for most 1936 MOPAR cars: Plymouth/Dodge/DeSoto.  These were sometimes installed at the factory but often appear to be a dealer installed accessory.  This unit installs up under the dash on the firewall.  There would have been included  (as chosen by the car owner) the radio control head in the dash with control cables from the radio head down to this radio box.  This radio box includes the radio's speaker.  Car owner would likely then also have chosen the most correct knobs available for the radio which would be the best match for the instrument design and maybe upholstery color.

  NOTE THAT THIS LISTING IS FOR ONE ONLY (CHOICE) (1) of the (3) Control Heads pictured.  You will pick Plymouth/Dodge or DeSoto radio head for your application after winning the bid for this radio combination set.  Most 1936 Chrysler cars used a completely different radio control head, often referred to as "cathedral" and we don't have any of those available.  Have only seen a couple of those sold in many years and those were around $1200-$1500 so not many around.  Also we don't know just which Chrysler cars might have used the simpler Control Head like in this listing.  Anyone with information would be welcome to share info.  Look possibly to another of our listings for   
   Condition of this radio box is as good of condition of many we have or have had on our shelved large MOPAR radio collection.  Outside of box has some deteriorated paint and scratching.  Local/Distant switch works OK.   It often takes more than one of these old radios to complete the restoration of one good radio.  This radio box is practically unmolested since original in its condition now, appearing maybe to only have been opened for our inspection.  Guaranteed only that it will have to be electronically rebuilt, that is new caps, maybe even needing replacement tubes or even the vibrator, etc.  It really could use new cloth material replacement for the speaker face area.  Radio's playing operation was not tested by us at all.
  NOTE THAT THIS LISTING INCLUDES "NO" knobs.  You will have to find knobs that match your interior.  Condition of all 3 face plates shown for winner's choice is very nice metal condition, radio faces need repainted (thinned-scratched paint) (Dodge was wood-grain finished- faded), head is complete with wires, bulb socket, inline fuse end, etc. with all cables working smoothly, the on/off switch works OK and the dial moves correctly/smoothly when turning the tuning knob.  I find no dents in these radio face plates. 
  E-Mail questions.  PayPal available and required by from bid winner outside the U.S.A.  Winner pays $31.00 USPS Parcel S&H and $4.00 Insurance within Continental U.S.A.  Outside the U.S.A. e-Mail with complete delivery address (not just country) for shipping calculation.  We always try to combine shipment of multiple purchases to help save the bidder on shipping costs but this is quite heavy and may require this radio set to be shipped separately, depending on what else might be purchased.  Returns only allowed for items delivered not as described in the listing.
  NOTE: That Buy-It-Now includes Insured Shipping within Continental U.S.A. a new antenna and an antenna adapter from old to new style antenna terminal. 
NOTE:  NO ANTENNA is included with this radio if not bought with Buy-It-Now.  Look possibly to another of our listings for a good matching antenna.

Thu, 02 Apr 2009

By James Foxall Motor Shows 02 April 2009 14:49 What’s new on Ssangyong’s Seoul motor show stand?There was palpable relief on the Ssangyong stand in Seoul as the motor show press day followed a company conference where its rejuvenation package had been outlined to worried importers. This is being led by the C200, a Nissan Qashqai-style crossover SUV that will come in both two -and four-wheel drive formats. Production of Ssangyong’s first ever monocoque car starts in November 2009 and it’ll be on sale in the UK for March 2010, promising a cheap alternative to traditional makers.
