Default Radio?

Okay so I have a 1965 coupe, the current (original) AM radio does not work (probably not hooked up but i dunno). Im looking for a new radio AM/FM w/ipod compatibility. Only thing is
I will not cut the dash in anyway. Do any of you guys have a radio/ipod set up like this that just slides in and doesnt require cutting the dash? Anylinks to something like this would be great.
Thanks!

Yep, go ahead and put one under the dash, and be done with it.

Ive heard of receivers that have a face plate that looks like the original, then it just folds down and u got ur cd player behind it. But i dont have a clue as to wear to get them.

Hey man i actaully just had that done! I got two 6 by 9 in the bak i had to cut a little and a 12 inch sub/amp in the back and a new ipod radio that charges my ipod and displays the songs. I had the exact same issue i didnt want to cut so they built a littl ebox under the dash and it looks great and can be removed without any damage to the car i have a 68 coupe, unfortuanlty u am gettin a stock fan/shroud put in and i shld get my car back today or tommrow if you arn't in a hurry ill show you some pics of the set up a soon as i get it back hopfully tonight!

I kept the stock radio in it's original position because mine came original too...but anyway I built a box and mounted it below the original. And then you can put whatever you want.

U can go to cj pony parts. they have original appearring am/fm radios with ipod capability. They also have upgraded receivers that can handle a larger system. They have a free catalog on their site and it doesn't take too long either. They have a huge salvage yard too that you can see on the site.
