Hi All,

Have just joined the forum as I am looking for some help in restoring the original radio from my Grandfathers 1962 Ford Falcon.

Are there any members in Perth that tinker on these types or radios?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers, Joe.

There's one mob listed on the services page for WA who might be able to help, directly or indirectly:
