Radio Install

Post by schmidty52 »

I want to install an aftermarket radio in my 67 F-100. Just asking if you can make one fit without cutting to make a larger hole. If you can were to pick up an install kit to make it all work.

If you figure out a way to do it you'll be a hero!! :wink:

I know of no after market radios or kits that will let you retro fit a modern radio in a "67" dash without modifying the dash. I believe there is a Volvo kit that works on the 68 - 72's, but 67's are special and unique. Much like the people who own them!

That's cool, with how small the cut out is for 67 radios I didnt think it could be done.
