found this cool delco radio on ebay and popped for it at $25 when the beckers and blaupunkts were bringing in more than i have in the checking account. a little fiddling. knobs are too cool.




old delco am/fm treble and bass with front and rear speaker pig tails

 

when you get tired of it, sell it to me. I collect old radios. I even have a Jaguar factory 8-track radio. I still have my 8-track tapes from the 1960's and 70's. Their sound is superior to CDs and Cassettes. Also have 1964 and 1965 AM-only radios, before FM.

 

should have gone to you first!

 

I've got the factory MiniDisc player in my modern Jag

 

wow! Wish I'd seen this, I need to sort a radio one day...

 

I never listen to the radio. I'm always listening for noises that should not be there.

If anyone has a period correct radio they'd like to sell (working or not) please send me a pm.

what year? period?
positive or negative ground?

 

1963 MK2 negative ground.

 

I'll look at the ones I have this coming week.

but can you get the MiniDiscs anymore?

 

Extraordinarily easily

It's still possible to buy brand new discs in unopened packaging from ebay, and various places around the world still sell new stock. I think it was only fairly recently they were still being produced somewhere in Japan or Korea

 

StuG,
I have a 1963 Radiomobile but it is positive ground, all Jaguar radios of that period came positive ground.

 

Hi Jose,

Thanks for that. I'm just leaving for the Jaguar National Rally in Adelaide. I will send you a PM as soon as I get a chance.
