In Reply to: model 700 roof mount radio sale alert. posted by Brad Jensen on Saturday, December 27, 2008 at 14:45:08 :
I had a spare Model 700 roof mounted radio, and I sold it earlier this year. Glad to know I did it at the right time, before the bottom fell out of the market.
By the way, even an NOS tube radio of that age will most likely need some work before it will work well, they just don't do well with 50+ years of storage.
I will be buying one if I can, what a neat thing to have!
By the way, these are the Model 700s like I attached a picture of, right? They are not the later roof mounted housing for the standard 60s pickup radio used in Low Cab Forwards in the mid to late 60s I hope. Those are around NOS, and a lot less interesting.
Now I wish I hadn't spent the money and time to reproduce the super hard to find antenna for these radios. Oh well, timing is everything.
Good luck with your sales.
Eric
