Subject: Tunes (long)
Hi Everyone. I don't write often but usually just "lurk". I guess I have
always thought that you learn more when you listen, then when your doing all
the talking. Anyway...... Just got my 64 Roadster back on the road. The
starter drive finally went out so I just replace the whole thing with a later
model starter that was shorter on the barrel which allowed it to fit a lot
better. Then..... thought as long as I was in the engine compartment, that
I'd add a row to the radiator. Boy! what a difference that makes as far as
how warm the engine runs and it could be my imagination, but I think it runs
alot better than it ever has. I WAS planning on going to Shasta this year but
didn't get the radiator back in time so... maybe next year. Would like to
attend some Northwest stuff between now and then though. Anyway..... again.
Subject line reads Tunes. And that is my question. What has everyone done in
the way of tunes for their cars? I have the stock AM radio still (and it
works great) but..... our AM stations really kind of suck around here.
(Southeast Washington) So...... I don't want to cut the dash board, but would
consider replacing the stock radio as long as a new one will fit in the
opening. I measured the opening. real smalll huh? Is there a AM-FM that will
fit? Better yet, has anybody come up with a nifty place to mount a CD player?
I know I'm asking alot, but just would appreciate some ideas from more
experienced Roadster owners on what you may have done. Bottom line, I gotta
have tunes when I'm cruzin! Have went too long without and it's time!
Thanks and Hope to meet some of you guys someday!
