1978 Triumph radio

I'd be more than a little amazed if a 78 Spit came with an auto reverse tape deck from the dealership.. Not even sure such things existed at that point, but I'm sure someone like Dave Plowman will be along to correct me on that! :)

My guess is the same as yours, I reckon early 80s. I had a Dolomite 1500 with what I guessed to be the original radio (or aftermarket from around when the car was new) fitted, was a 78 car IIRC, and the radio was an mw/lw one, no tape deck or anything. Was a Radiomobile or Motorola I think, not sure on that though.

In news: snipped-for-privacy@news.videotron.net, Mike Flaherty decided to enlighten our sheltered souls with a rant as follows

Looks like a Pye set from about 1982 to me. I've got a very similar one here somewhere, same typeface, same chamfered edge on the volume and tone knobs.

This one doesn't sound bad either.

Well I wasn't very offtrack then on my estimate ! Mine sounds okay, but it cannot tune stations lower than 91 Mhz.

Thanks all

I have got a 1977 Dolomite Sprint and it has a original Unipart AM/FM radio fitted bloody thing doesnt work though......
