British Leyland AM/FM pushbutton radio on eBAy... $365 ... incredible (I
suppose if a Bumble Bee hose can command over $250, why
not)!
What bothers me is the information provided, or rather misinformation.
Please help me understand the "facts":
[] I thought that British Leyland didn't start badging their logo until
after 1972. How could this possibly be a TR4 Radio? Certainly the radio
would work, but it's not "genuine".
[] Factory AM/FM radios were only available for TR250/TR6, except for US
dealer/customer aftermarket units - how could this be "factory issued".
[] According my archive (Jon Macartney stated, How can I tell if my radio
is a factory original?)"...up to 1972, Triumph supplied an AM only radio - and
with one
loudspeaker."
[] I thought TR4 were supplied with Smith Radiomobile models.
[] I thought the custom built units for Triumph available were Bendix
(v350&v480); Motorola Sapphire XIV; and US made Triumph 1967 Am/FM #7FBTRX
Please advise.
