ChevyTruck - Thanks for the info. Its very rare for me to trash a vendor. They really have to work to P me off. Right now I think I would just like to have my radio back in one piece, hoping that it was a quality restoration. Believe me, I'll be beating them up on the pricing though. The only feedback I've got from these guys is when I called them. That ain't right.

Oh, BTW -- here's what the site you mentioned has posted:

Please note: Due to the continuing expansion of our New Repro Radios business, we can no longer convert your original radio for you at this location. Call us or consult our frequently updated worldwide list of dealers to find one in your area which can do the work for you.
I'll check their worldwide list later

Thanks,

Don
