Default 1962 Galaxie radio speaker connector

I'm trying to bring my original radio back to life. Just bought the car in December. Initial trouble shooting revealed that the wiring wasn't connected and the speaker was missing. My guess is that at some point an owner had an aftermarket radio but reinstalled the original prior to sale for the authentic look without wiring it back up.


Bought a new speaker of the correct impedance and secondary troubleshooting reveals that the wiring for the speaker is gone. The challenge with this is the speaker wire connector that plugs into the driver's side of the radio chassis is missing too. It's a really odd connector, a two pin prong with one large pin and one small pin. I've done a lot of car wiring over the years and never seen another connector like this except for that single purpose.


Anyone have thoughts on sourcing a replacement or making one?
