Looking for an original 1983 radio in working condition - Clarion I would have thought.
Anybody have one for sale ?

Maybe not exactly authentic to what would have been in the car originally but there might be something here to satisfy you guys, if you can't find the original?

I think I might have a '84 one in the loft (might be at my pearents) only thing is the wires have been cut off the back (like that before I bought the car was just put back in the hole) Will try and have a look for you and see.

I got my 1980 radio and separate cassette player from RX Motors - Uncle Timmy is your best bet.

I can re solder some longer wires onto the it or put a iso lead in to it if it helps.

Series 2 Elford should have a separate cassette and tuner, as far as I know it wasn't until the series 3 that they changed to the industry standard single DIN size slot. I guess there's a chance a series 3 facia could have been retrofitted....
Anyway, I asked Tim while I was there other day and he has some of the separates units but no series 3 single DIN ones.
