HELP...Can anyone tell me where I can buy an original am/fm radio for my 79. It seems all of the Delco sites sell newer models, but none show the two shaft style. I'd appreciate any input.

Hey Dan,

I found mine on "the other forum's parts for sale" area and ended up signing a new C3VR member in the process!

I was watching the eBay auctions as well. Go through the Shopping tab to the eBay C3 Auctions. The radio category is tucked in the Electrical category. That was the long way - here's a shortcut: eBay C3 Auctions/Electrical/C3 Radio

If there aren't any radios listed for your particular year look at the ones that are listed anyway. Many of the items up for auction are put there by outfits that repair/refurbish radios and they may have something available for sale but just not listed on eBay.

Also don't forget to check out the 'Completed Items' page(s) for more leads as well as what kind of prices radios have been going for recently. It may take a bit of digging to get to some of the vendors sites but it will be worth it in the long run.

Happy hunting...!!!
