Delco R 705 1st Signal Seeking Radio Reconditioned "to Fit B O P* See List Xclnt on 2040-parts.com
Shelton, Washington, US
Up for your bidding pleasure and consideration at auction is this 1947 Delco R 705 the first signal seeking radio that has been completely reconditioned from the wire harness to the handset that fits around the steering column. Working as to to specification this was the first signal seeking tuned radio manufactured for the auto industry to fit multiple year and make vehicles.
It will fit* 41-42-46-47 Chevrolet and Pontiac; 41-42-46-47 Buick and Oldsmobile; 40 Chevrolet, Pontiac and Oldsmobile; 40 Chrysler, Dodge and Plymouth; 41 Chrysler, Plymouth and DeSoto; 46 Dodge Custom, DeSoto Custom, Plymouth and Chrysler; 42 DeSoto, Chrysler and Plymouth; 47 Chrysler, DeSoto Deluxe and Custom Plymouth and Dodge Custom; 42-46-47 Ford and Mercury; 42-46-47 Packard; 46 -47 Studebaker; 42-46-47 Hudson; 46 DeSoto Deluxe; 41-42 Dodge; 47 Dodge Deluxe and the 46-47 Kaiser and Frazer.*
The handset fits the steering column and all controls are in it including the seek feature, on off, volume, tone control and dial. What's more should you want to tune the radio manually there is a cable with new sheathing.
All condensors including electrolytics have been replaced. Resistors and tubes out of tolerance have been changed and some modifications have been made to enhance selectivity and sensitivty in the seek and audio features. A six volt negative ground solid state vibrator is included and polarity must be observed. Should you desire to put this in an 8 or 12 volt modified vehicle we recommend that a voltage regulator be purchased not supplied with the sale. A dropping resistor would not be the way to go as there are solenoids and relays as well as the tuning meter that may not work properly. Any 4 to 8 ohm speaker and enclosure will work that will plug into the RCA jack.
You see these come up on ebay and none of them work. This one will. It's a lovely radio that has had all controls cleaned lubed and the radio has been adjusted aligned and teched to spec. You probably will not get a chance to bid on one again sooo... GOOD LUCK!
Shipping and handling via FedEx to the lower forty eight @ $28.00 with insurance included. Will ship out of area including HI AK Canada and Overseas. Please request a rate.

2013 VW Golf TDI BlueMotion Mk 7 costs from £20,335
Thu, 02 May 2013Starting at £20,335 for the 3-door BlueMotion and rising to £20,990 for the 5-door, the new Golf also emits just 85g/km CO2 (which would have been enough for free London Congestion charging, but not any more) which is 15 per cent better than the previous Mk 6 TDI BlueMotion managed. VW has managed to tweak the Golf BlueMotion’s economy figures still further by reducing weight, fitting super low rolling resistance tyres (that run with higher pressure), longer gear ratios, stop-start and aerodynamic tweaks. Thos aerodynamic tweaks includes modifications to the front of the Golf to reduce drag by nearly 10 per cent, adding a roof spoiler, air guide elements on the back window, a masked front grill, smoother underfloor and a reduction of ride height by 15mm.
McLaren 12C Concept showcases McLaren Special Operations (MSO) goodies
Mon, 09 Dec 2013The McLaren 12C MSO Concept (pictured) highlights McLaren’s MSO upgrades Unless you’ve ever been and bought a supercar (or a high-end luxury car) new, you may not realise that the regular options list is just the starting point for individual customisation. In fact everyone, from Ferrari to Rolls Royce, will do pretty much whatever you want to your new car if your pockets are deep enough, and it’s a game – and a cash cow – McLaren are keen to make the most of. That’s why we had the extreme McLaren X-1 project a couple of years ago, but that went a lot further than most Mclaren buyers want to go with their new car.
New Land Rover Defender DC100 Concept at L.A. Auto Show
Thu, 17 Nov 2011New Land Rover Defender DC100 Concept at L.A. Auto Show We saw the reveal of the Land Rover Defender DC100 Concept earlier this year at the Frankfurt Motor Show, designed as a first view of a new Defender aiming for production in 2015. But Land Rover made it clear that the DC100 was a work in progress and that it didn’t necessarily define what the new Land Rover Defender will offer.
