Mounting a radio in the old truck

[Sparky]

How do I go about mounting a new radio in the beast and make it look decent? Here is the hole. 1978 F250

Any place that sells sterios sells trim kits. A generic one will do fine. They might list your truck if you go to crutchfield.com and use their search tools.

You could probably do something with Kydex.

I made a gauge bezel out of aluminum once and it turned out great!

Just put some 2x4's on it!

After looking at what is left of your dash and what is available out there I would use and aluminum plate for the opening and cut a din size hole in it. Mount radio and make sure you use a rear support. Are there already holes in the doors? This should be an afternoon job.

You need a modern radio with a DIN chassis and mount.
A 2cnd +1 for Crutchfield.

If you don't smoke you can fit one of the smaller Cobra CB's in the cutout if you ditch the ashtray.............
