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 for the age. 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 at this fine example. If you're looking for a beautiful and great playing radio for 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!

Locke review: a road movie with a difference

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

Locke is a road movie with a difference – not to mention an enormous contrast to Need for Speed, which is the last heavy car content film I reviewed on MSN Cars. Simply put, Locke stars Tom Hardy and a BMW X5, and that’s about it. To say very much more than this would actually be to give away the, ahem, driving force of the plot – if you can even call it that.
