Can anyone help with a recommendation for somone to repair a 1975 Radio from my Corvette C3? An update using existing face and controls is OK too.
Thanks

I used Tadpole radios for the conversion for the original (broken) radio in my AH3000. Nice guy, delivered to time and quality product. Expensive but good.

I used Car Audio Repair Services in Hove on a 1994 Alpine, and they did a very good job at what I felt was a reasonable price.

Don't know where you're based but I bought an old Motorola from this shop in Portsmouth. He converted so I could play my iphone though one of the radio station buttons , he has a workshop in the back of his tiny shop. Knows his stuff and cheap. http://www.radioshop.org.uk

The guy I used above charged me £130 for a mint 70s Motorola including the conversion for my iPhone to play though it. Also repaired it for a tenner when I messed it up with the wrong speakers .... got a lesson in ohms as a result as well smile

He repaired old pioneer radio cassette and added an aux in socket.
