Yes, pretty sure my first car 68 LeMans had the Factory AM with single rear speaker (fed by the Blue wire)


Changing that to a Delco Junkyard stereo with modern Jensen Triaxs & new package tray was such a well-defined project for a mid-teen. Oh and the radio shack 40 Watt EQ.

I do have the option rear power antenna

So what am/fm radio would come with rear speaker with no rear speaker switch on the dash. Like I said this is a late build. I did read some were, that they changed the radios in late production in 68. But I do not know what they changed. Anybody???

This is what I have come up with, after talking to a few people that the am/fm and rear speaker was dear installed. But no good answer on what radio they would have installed with no rear speaker switch on the dash.
