I used Greg Ward on my 69 am/fm mono and it turned out beautiful! Has not been installed yet so I can't vouch for how it works.

I used Jackson for the speaker, and Ward for my AM-FM 8-track from the T/A. Very satisfied with both.

Steve,
Does this fellow rebuild the 8 track and cosmetically restore the exterior as well? Will he do after market 8 tracks?

Thanks,

I dont know about cosmetic stuff as mine were nice already and didnt need any prettying up. I think he works on just about anything. Give him a call.

I had Ward restore an 8-track for me a few months ago. He cleaned the exterior and made it look a lot better that it did. There are not many parts availabe for the 8 track players so he will do the best job he can with what he has to work with. I was very happy with mine. He charged $165 and had it done in a little over a week.
