I'm a moron.
I've been searching high and low for a radio mounting bracket for my 67 f-100 which has never had a radio in it ever. I finally figured out that the two tabs that were bent down are in fact the mounting brackets themselves. I simply bent them up and mounted the radio that I've been trying to install since I bought it on e-bay. Now I just need a factory speaker and an antenna to finish up this project.

Re: I'm a moron.
Not so fast..... there might be more!!!
I dunno how the radio is mounted on a 67 but my 70 has a bracket mounted to the radio's rear stud. .. it is shaped to follow the back of the radio, goes left, bends towards you, then down to a backwards "L" whose "foot" bolts to an under-dash brace behind and below the ash tray. I'm glad the PO included it in the box of miscellaneous parts.
I'd like to mount a dash speaker but haven't figured out how it was mounted...

Re: I'm a moron.
I have the parts, radio brackets, speaker, speaker holder bracket and pictures. email me and I'll send you pictures and explain how they're mounted.
My pictures are to big to post and I don't feel like re-sizing right now.

Re: I'm a moron.
Pat I found this in my manual which shows the original setup. This bracket they show will only work for the AM radio, my AM FM will not work with this stock bracket because the radio is shorter. Notice the speaker bracket has a rectangular hole, you will need the original one to use that. There isn't much room in there for much else. Hope this helps.
