Suggestions and links for Cassette Deck for 1969 Mach1

[cfauvel]

I have an older, not classic , JVC cassette deck, that probably has very low wattage.

Of course it is shaft mounted.

I'm looking for makers and links to shaft mounted car stereos with at least 35w per channel (4 channels), separate bass and trebble and not one of the CustomAutosound offerrings as seen in the classic mustang catalogs.

I saw one website, but can't find it again, that offerred the newer style head units with a new dash bezel for your specific car so you didn't cut your original bezel. If anybody could help find that site that would be great.

Or if you know where I can get just the bezel for a 1969 mach1 made for the newer style head units that would work too.

I would prefer to go with a higher power retro stereo than a newer style for car show reasons...but I have more options with a newer head unit.


Running an amp is an option, but as the car is show, I didn't want to run a big ol' red cable from the battery through firewall to trunk or under the seat for the amp.


help please, come on you young'uns...can't you help a middle aged man and his classic car get clearer volume out of his retro music?

Find some black looming and cover the wire. Loom up some of the other wires under yuor hood/dash with the same looming so all the wires look the same and nobody will even notice that it's a power wire for a stereo system.

As for the shaft mount radio....may take a while but I'll see what I can some up with.

Well, 2/3 of what I've found is Custom Autosound on calmustang.com....lol

Custom Autosound with or without cassette and with a 6 disk changer.

Custom Autosound I think this is the one you were talking about.

Kenwood from the same web site.


There's a selection of different ones onMustangDepot.com

Hopefully there's something here to fit your taste. If not, lemme know and I'll find a few more.

thanks for the reply

I found the company that had new style head units in a 1969/70 radio bezel...I dig the modified bezel, but not too keen on paying so much for their head unit...rather get the bezel and search out for a different and cheaper head unit...

too bad shaft mounted radios are passe.
