    image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg Great looking 8 track tape player. I bought it from another board member for a 68 GS I used to own. I was told it worked when Dave had it, but I never tried, so can't guarantee it.
    $200 plus shipping and insurance thru fedex

    Mark,

    I'm interested. Is there a difference between a 68 & 69?

    Jeff,
    The 68 is a one year only item. The mounting bracket is the two braces, and the door faceplate does not have the word BUICK pressed into it
     
    DBS and My3Buicks like this.

    Thanks Mark.
    I'd like to p/u one for my 69 GS Cvt 4 Spd car, now I know what to look out for.

    Jeff.

    You can see the difference in them now. Different mounting bracket and tape door

    AND is that the factory carpet delete rubber floor mat? Haven't seen one of those since the 1980's in my car! Loved that thing back in those days (had some messy friends back then:D)

    Do you have the wiring harness by chance?

    John, it's carpeted , just the angle the picture was taken at makes it look like the flooring used in the Special.

    Korrie, I have some harnesses for the 69-up version. The 68 was totally different and I have no clue where it went.

    John, that is factory carpeting, just the angle and light make it look like the base flooring

    Korrie, I don't have the 68 harness any longer , no clue where it went

    Jeff, if you find one you want restored, drop me a line and I can turn you on to a guy who is awesome at restoring these.
