Does anyone have recommendations for suppliers of a vintage looking AM/FM/CD player for a '56 Fairlane (12v). I have only been able to locate Custom Autosound (found a few "bad audio sound" comments), and a Pioneer PIO-200 which doesn't look that great.

Current audio setup has the original AM in the dash, with an old AM/FM/cassette in the glove compartment. I just installed an air conditioning unit, so the old AM dosen't even still fit behind the dash. I can just upgrade the glovebox unit, but if I can find something good looking, I'd consider putting it in the dash.

Some companies make a remote unit that will fit under the seat( or in the trunk) and you use a remote controll to operate it. Then you could make a radio block off plate for the dash. There are some still around on ebay.

I went with the custom autosound in dash unit. Comes with a look alike faceplate. They are at:

I have the CustomAutoSound unit in my 56 and it works great.I also used their stereo speaker that fit in the original speaker location.
