    My last CB I was really surprised. It was the only radio I have ever had where I didn’t need to use the external speaker the stock radio speaker work just fine.

    I’m thinking it’s probably that shifter with the chrome round dome with a three speed switch and yes, it does look like a Scandia. I didn’t think they were using them in those years either, but I have seen them and R models.
  12. mowerman
    Hell, I was just flipping around Google search I can’t find anything that even looks close
  13. mowerman
    I think that’s pretty much a universal switch and watts has a lot of them worth a try
  14. mowerman
    Excellent thanks for that Again, your truck looks amazing

    Oh, by the way, since we’re on the subject I’ve also had two beetles and one bus. Yes, I have had a lot of cars in my day.
  16. mowerman
    Ha ha yes it would be a lot more than that now I also had a 57 back at 1973 but it was a four-door sedan. I sold it and bought a 62 Impala.

    Tom, I think we’ve all done stuff like that before one to one match is pretty hard to come up with
  18. mowerman
    OK, that’s funny Dave. I did not even notice the hole in the fender. That’s just what it looks like.

    Excellent 40 years ago they were a lot cheaper I got my 55 for 100 bucks back in 75 but it wasn’t much more than a rolling shell had to put a lotta time and parts on it
  20. mowerman
    I would try watts B model store
  21. mowerman
    it should look something like this
  22. mowerman
    Looks excellent Tom and yes that’s what they used to tell us in the 70s was to hook it to the battery. I don’t know what’s up with that but I think it was cut cut out all the engine noise frankly I never liked the idea anyway especially on a company truck. But it’s probably a good idea.

    Yes, mine are all junk. Two of them are shredding rubber and flat. I’m going to have to do something soon. I’ve got to at least takeoff the two shredded and swap some things around for now. I am also on a budget now I am retired and trying to cut a few corners around here, I was going to go for the double coins 175 a piece I can’t even find those now Hobby trucks nobody really wants to go full on with prices

    Just checked it said I only got 8% of storage. Looks like I got a while before I max out.bob
