What modern radio that fits in the dash have you found to be the best? I have one that has electronic tuning that has a hot circuit going to it for memory, but will not hold on station. I see one advertised that has push buttons that you can set. Has any one tried this type or any other modern radio. Do not want to convert my original radio.

Guess I don't have an answer for you but I am interested in this threads response myself. What year Ford are you asking about? Mac's sells a product called "Secret Audio"that is all hidden under seat or wherever and you use a remote,they also sell replacements for 1940 1942-48 but all of these are 12 volt neg,and cheaper elsewhere. As far as conversions all I ever hear is a lot of money spent and no reliabilty. AM is only good for originality and talk radio at least here in Ohio.
