Great Experience!

The radio was a great price and was shipped and received promptly. My son was so happy to find this radio as he wanted to keep his 84 F150 looking classic.

Unmatched exceptional performance

I was searching for a dood set of high quality speakers. I found a GREAT set of Herz 6X9 and 2 4” dieci and the clarity and power from these speakers are unmatched. Don’t sleep on herz speakers!!

Poor fit and appearance.

The stereo I purchased said it fit a 1971 Roadrunner. It did not. Their tech told me to call the manufacturer, which I did. The manufacturer just said, "We make them to fit for Chrysler B-bodies." Not only does it not fit it the opening, but the knobs and face look cheap for the money spent.

For the price, not impressed.

Seems to be a very average quality maybe even low quality. Seems to be behind on technology as the iPod connection is for a iPod from 5+yrs ago. Was pretty disappointed honestly for the price of this unit. Just outdated with an updated price. Would not recommend if you have other options. Only plus is it kinda fits in the stock location but some changes needed to be made to fit correctly.

72 Cutlass Supreme Convertible…

72 Cutlass Supreme Convertible (USA-630), MSD Ignition- I have been messing with this stereo for the last couple of years. I get a pop/cutout when the car is running. When it's off, nothing, the stereo sounds great. I sent it back to Classic Car Stereos to have it checked. They said there is nothing wrong with it. However, when I inquired, all they did was hook it up to their inside work bench and of course, it sounded great. I have my vehicle grounded like you would not believe, with 3 engine-to-body straps, plus battery-to-body and frame, 3 body-to-frame straps, a Shielded MSD cable, and grounds going to different places. I even replaced the alternator and the battery with no change. When I hook up my old JVC, under the dash stereo it sounds amazing with no pops/cutouts. Tech support is useless! This was the biggest waste of money and time. Do not buy this Chinese junk!
