Upgrading my radio, Looking for Ideas/Help

[Squirrel22299]

Hello everyone, I'm new here, so this is my first post. Basically I purchased a 1981 Mustang that is decently tricked out. The radio is well ready to be upgraded or replaced though. Currently it's running an aftermarket radio that is pretty run down and used. It's only hooked up to two speakers in the way back running through one amp. I found a guy who has a 94 radio setup out of a mustang, and I'm assuming the head unit would fit, my questions are; am I correct, and he has other speakers(doors, small tweeters, and a couple larger ones) but would those be worth getting or should I just get new speakers and a newer head unit
Thanks!
Brian

I vote get the new stuff.

New stuff. The Mach 460 stuff is designed as a system so you really need all the amps and 8 speakers for it to work right.

Go with a new, modern head unit and quality speakers

Go to any local radio shop and tell them to give you the works

Just went through this thought process myself. Aftermarket setup will not only be better sounding, but will have current features, and will likely be cheaper to boot.
