If anyone wants to try to fix an old tube-powered car radio and needs the manual for it, I recently obtained vols 1 through 5 of Sams Photofacts which should cover all car and truck radios from WWII up to the late 1950s. Sams Photofacts were the standard repair manuals for all consumer electronics back in those days and are very clear and well-done.
I'm not sure what the model number was of the ceiling-mounted radio where the antenna goes through the roof and directly into the radio, but it lists a Mopar "610T" as the radio for B-3 Dodge trucks, for example.
Send me an email if you're interested.
