Btw, you could get an 8 track on a non console 69 Firebird. It used a tiny bracket that was less than an inch tall and therefore didn't need a trim bezel to hide the bracket. Here is a pic of it on my base 1bbl OHC6 no console 69 ragtop.
That 8 track is so cool. Assume the 8 track mandated an AM-FM steeo radio? In a 'vert, where are the stereo speakers located?

For us old guys, 8 track follies could be a sticky somewhere. How offen did you see an 8 track cartridge laying alone side the road with about a mile of tape hanging out?
