Default 1972 Olds AM radio

Guys, I took this AM radio out of my moms '72 442 when it was brand new and installed another raido in the car. I've kept it for 40 years and someone can have it if they want it.

Dave, someone from the site communicated with me about wanting the radio, but I haven't heard back from him for his address. If I don't hear from him by Monday, I'll send it to you. It's boxed and ready to go.

Sadly, it's gone. It was from Nortell Olds in Chicago and it was a 350 2bbl with single exhaust. It was also orange with black bucket seats and a console automatic on the floor. It also had orange Super Stock wheels. I was 16 and I thought it was the coolest car in the world. My best friend had a '72 Hurst Olds that he won on a bet from his dad. Honest to god, he made a bet with his dad and won it and the payoff was the '72 Indy Pace Car.

Dave, Joe sent me his address, so it's going off to him next week. Wish I had another now.

I just don't have any pictures, I wish I did. Had some in the past, but they were lost in a move back in 1993. I also look for my friends Pace Car coupe, I remember the options on it well.
