I am wondering if anyone here has a non-functioning or plain broken radio applicable to 1970 through 1977 Firebirds.

I would be interested in getting a (1) faceplate surround (more on that in a moment), (2) a couple buttons, and (3) tiny rear support bracket.

1) This part is used on ALL AM and AM/FM radios, it's the pot metal piece that covers the dial indicator.

2) I realize that I can buy reproduction buttons for an AM/FM radio (two are marked AM & FM, and three are unmarked), but I would prefer to source used ones since most of the $50 cost of new buttons would be for naught... since I only need one.

3) this is the tiny bracket that attached to the (if looking at a radio head on) left side, near the back of the housing for AM radios - it has a small stud that is used to hang it from the radio bracket that is often missing from behind the dash (this same stud sticks out from the larger AM/FM case).

You might ask yourslf "Why does he want these parts?";
I have a radio I pulled years ago from a 1975 Firebird;
This radio had (still has) a missing button (the toothed shaft is there);
Probably the better part of twenty years ago, I removed the support bracket, and pot metal face plate to "convert" a black button A-body radio for use in a Firebird - this is why I am interested in these parts.

Thanks for looking, and thank you VERY much if you might consider selling me any of these parts.

Just sold my 1970 am radio. I'm considering buying an am fm red dot early with cursive script but not sure yet I have a bold script 77 one at moment if I do ill sell my 77 red dot. I'll let you know

Thanks, but I am not looking to buy a complete radio - just a couple pieces.

If you’re talking about this

bracket I MIGHT have one if nobody else does but I’d have to dig for it so I’ll wait a bit to see if that’s ok.

Here is an image of the three parts I am looking for:

O I see. Sorry for the false alarm, don’t have that one.

That's going to be a super hard find just buy an AM core the cheapest one and be done with it that's my opinion but good luck

Not sure if have any early 2nd Gen AM's, do have a smoke damaged block GM (75?-77) AM-FM with the correct potmetal faceplate & 3 black center buttons. Believe I removed the AM & FM buttons off it already.

Going to be aprox 2 weeks before can pull out the fliptop tubs of factory radios & stereos. Will also ck the trunks of my '70 roller as well as 71 parts cars. Quite a few boxed original parts in those that have not been put up in parts tubs.

I have a 71 am radio if that will work for you.

I went to a local place, SPECMO, they had the ew 8 track Radio face, (new GM), a 8 track belt, light bulb, and a 3 pc Delco plug kit, bought 2 kits they were so cool, with crimp on ends.
