If you are going to put a modern radio in I strongly reccomend 2 things.

1. Make sure that it has a USB port. Nothing like having 32GB of music in the car and NO SKIPPING!!!!

2. If you are going to cut the rear panel or if it is already cut, make sure that you make/find speaker boxes for the trunk side. They will sound like crap if the backs are open to that MASSIVE trunk.

Looks nice! For my '72, built a box that fits under the package tray and fires forward with a pair of 12" CV subs. Did this around 1998 and still works great. Nothing like a subwoofer system in a great car to enjoy it even more.
