Eric,

Welcome to PAS!

When you get the car, please do NOT try to fire up the radio without at least putting a fuse (probably 20 amp will do, although those with a radio should say if it is less) in the power feed to the radio. If the car has been sitting quite a while, the electrolytic capacitors are likely dried out, and shorted. You should send it to one of the guys who restore radios to get it checked out.

Please send pics of the car, and especially the engine compartment, when available.

Bob
