Tell us more about your radio repair. Cost, shipping, time it was down,
problem that was repaired, was it well done, and most of all, was it done
right?
Will they rebuild radios from the seventies? Not a fair question but just
thought their paperwork may have said something about the scope of their
business.

Here's the link to their site for Corvettes
http://www.carstereohelp.com/corvette.htm
They only list problems/removal directions for 1990 and up but also tell
you that not all radios and problems are addressed on the website and
suggest that you e-mail them with questions concerning your particular
problem.
I sent them the Bose control head unit from my '94 since the CD was
acting up. It stopped accepting CD's without a fight, then would stop
playing them, eject when it felt like it and got progressively worse.
That's the FIRST problem listed on their site. Cost $190 plus the
UPS/USPS shipping to them. I believe that the return freight's
included. IIRC, it was back to me within two weeks and has worked like
a champ ever since.
I wouldn't hesitate to use them or recommend their service. There are a
couple out there but this place in Longwood, Florida seemed to have the
largest following and number of positives.
Good luck.

Thanks for the feedback, I only used them once and it was a long time ago.
It even think it was a Wonderbar radio in the '70s and it's good the hear
they are still doing good work.
