Found a Hen's Tooth!

I can't believe I missed this on my first trip out there. Have to figure out what to do next with it. I also have to go back and nab the antenna. Details ya know.

Mopar radio model 602. @B1B Keven?

I rebuilt a Mopar model 802 for my 48 Plymouth, which appears to be a similar radio.  I have a copy of the  service documents,  I had to replace the paper and electrolytic capacitors.  I also replaced the mechanical vibrator with an electronic one.  Radio works well, but the darn thing only gets old AM stations.

I just checked ebay to see if I paid too much; $75.00. Looks like a fair price. Found a few other radios in various stages of decay ranging from 50.00-350.00. Looks like I'll be trying to clean up what I have and get 'er workin'. I'm going to want a new faceplate, or figure out how to refresh the one I've got. After that I'll put on my EE hat and see what happens.

Congrats!

Unfortunately, the guy near me that rebuilds these radios is no longer in business.

Here's a place for new dials:
