1960´s audio set ups

Some bugger has cut up the dash to fit a modern radio (I will be fixing that)

Presumably the same bugger cut two effing big holes in the inner side A pillar sections to fit some round loud speakers.

I expect that very same bugger cut two nasty effing big holes in the rear parcel shelf too...

...the parcel shelf is definitely going to be treated to some new metal.

BUT

I was thinking => What did Volvo do?

The made provision for a radio in the dash but where did they put the loud speaker or loud speakers?

I´m assuming a 1961 vintage vehicle wouldn´t have had an 8 track stereo set up because Phillips hadn´t made it / released it back then so a double speaker system probably isn´t likely.

STILL

I just don´t know - can anyone here help?
