Congrats, Paul.

I was hoping to snag it for my 64 P1800, but alas the search continues.

Bought it for my 1966 P1800S. A lot more than I wanted to spend on a radio that I will never listen to, but how do you price a rare 50 year old item in mint condition ? . I think it will finish the dash off well. Just need to find some luggage straps and hooks. might end up with second hand hooks and have the leather straps made locally. will keep my eye out for a radio for you. Regards Paul

The radios do look good in the dash, I got an American Volvo radio by blaupunkt myself which I plug in an ipod to, it does finish the dash nicely. I might have some straps and hardware lying around, I will have a look.

stunning radio

Fitted and working. Sounds great. Problem fitting, the previous owner had cut the dash and fitted a modern radio with blue flashing lights. No way of securing radio to the dash as the hole was too big. Had a very neat stainless steel plate made with a screw hole in each corner. Looks ok. regards paul
