Waldren 13 Posted January 30, 2015 My 42 Continental that I purchased 4 years ago is nearing completion. I never checked the radio it was in a bunch of parts. Went to install and found out it is a post war. The speaker is in the dash but requires a connector to the radio. The post war speaker has the wire built in the speaker. I need a post war speaker or the wire to attach the 42 speaker to the radio. Yes I know the face plate and cover are different but this is my fun car I had a senior coupe in 1962 - 63 and had a lot of fun driving it. Now at 75 I'm remembering the fun drives.

abelincoln 9 Posted February 2, 2015 I'm sure a concourse judge would not notice if you used a Frys or Radio Shack plug and socket. Not sure about the 42 speaker, the ones I've seen have two terminals on them somewhere that connect to a wire that goes to a plug in the radio. My experience is that with radios this old, you usually need to replace the input electrolytic capacitors.Abe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
