<VV> No-option cars, was: Wierd combos on earlies...

[Wildman, Kenneth]

Penny had a nice transistor radio - about 8x11x2".  I made a holder for
it in the Psych department machine shop from a piece of 2-1/2" aluminum
bar stock (I milled out about 80% of the aluminum to make the silly
thing) and dry-peened it to a nice satin finish.  Mounted it on the
radio delete plate.  Folks were always asking where I bought it.  :)

Radios are so easy to add that I'd bet there are more "radio delete"
cars 
left with radios than still without... and back when you could still do 
this, I've bought a new "stripper" car and had the dealership throw in
some 
options that could be dealer added.... even did this with A/C once... in

1987!
