IML: Radio questions re my 1968 AM/FM Stereo

[Crestonave@xxxxxxx]

It's almost time to pull the radio on my 1968 Imperial Convert and send it out to be refurbed/repaired. This is not something I would be comfortable tackling myself.

 

The radio works - or at least is somewhat functional. At least it pulls in the strongest FM station in the area, but that's about all. Everything else is too faint and scratchy to listen too. (I think this has to do with the antennae more than anything else, and I'll try to check that out) The mechanical seek scan buttons don't work.

 

I want all the controls and buttons on the radio to work as they were originally designed. What vendor can undertake a project like this? Should I upgraded the "guts" at the same time, adding more modern electronics?

 

Any suggestions as to how to proceed would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks
