This is a beautiful, restored 1946-48 Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth & De Soto deluxe 7-button radio manufactured by Philco (model C-4608). Mopar model 802. It is original 6-volt positive ground. This radio is also correct for 1951-52 B series trucks. Also included is a copy of the very hard to find original owners manual to guide you with installation, setting the electronic push buttons and operation of the radio. The manual copy is intended for informational purposes only. Servicing of the radio included a thorough cleaning and lubrication, new capacitors, replacement of out of value resistors, tested tubes, great working vibrator, alignment, the excellent original power/speaker wire and plug, working dial lamp, new dial glass, new tone wheel dial art and a new fuse link with new fuse and eye terminal for easy installation. The original speaker plug is in excellent condition and is ready to hook up to your original Mopar 802 speaker. All of the mechanics function, as they should including the electronic station presets, station selections and manual tuning. The radio plays and sounds much better than most car radios of the era with great reception (receives a lot of stations), tone and sensitivity up and down the tuning scale. This truly is a great sounding radio. Not only does the radio play well but it is in beautiful cosmetic condition as well with bright shiny chrome on the bezel, original knobs and push buttons. There are a few imperfections here and there as expected with age but overall the radio is pleasing to the eye. The tone wheel dial art (voice, mello, music) shown in the bottom window of the dial is new and is an exact reproduction of the original in color and font. You will not find this dial art on any other radios offered and I've never seen one of these radios that hasn't needed it. Be sure to take advantage of the zoom feature for a closer look. If you want a beautiful and great playing original radio adorning the dash of your classic Mopar then you will be very happy with this fine example that is ready to install. CA residents pay 7.75%. Your well packaged radio will be shipped the day following receipt of payment. Thank you!


Jaguar XF – 2010 Updates

Thu, 11 Feb 2010

Jaguar has updated the XF range for 2010 / 2011 The Jaguar XF was the real start of the Jaguar renaissance. It replaced the very able – but rather unloved – S Stype in 2008 and offered a real contemporary Jaguar, fully equipped for the 21st century and able to stand toe to toe with the best that Germany could offer. Top of the tree is the Jaguar XFR which is at least the match of the M5, E63 and RS6, but at less money.

New Volvo C30 introduced +Video

Tue, 08 Sep 2009

Volvo has facelifted the C30 for 2010 and will launch it at Frankfurt The front of the new C30 sports sheet metal changes to the wings and bonnet and a bigger Volvo badge on the honeycomb grill, together with bigger air intake. These changes reflect those seen on the new Volvo C70 and are a reflection of design cues from the S60 Concept. The rear gets a tweak too, and you now get a colour-coded rear valence, which can be specified in a contrast colour if you wish.
