original factory radio

incase you dont know im restoring my 85 pickup with all the original parts, today i hooked up the radio that was under the seat of the truck, but it is an am/fm/cassette aftermarket radio from the late 80's

long story short im looking for an original radio to install in my truck. does anybody have one or know where i can get one??

an am radio will work just fine but i would prefer one with cassete on accounta' they dont play my kinda music (classic 70's honkytonk and bluegrass) round here, nd i like cassete's better then cd's or those dang i-pod doohickey things.

thank you guys alot for ur help!!

as long as it works properly, especially the cassette deck (i've had plenty of radios that worked great, yet the cassette deck didnt work) $5 is well worth it

Yeah when I pulled this one I know the radio for sure worked, can't really confirm about the casette though as I don't think I tried it. Worst comes to worse I'll just refund your money and you can keep the thing to chop it or do whatever.
