Default 1966 Radio

I need a new radio, but don’t want to spend the big bucks for the original equipment. I have checked on eBay and others and they are fetching some really high prices for original radios, some don't even work. The car itself has been modified a little as it is, so a newer looking radio would not be the end of the world, but I want to have some what of a original look to it. Any ideas on a radio that looks older but is newer that does not cost hundreds of dollars?

Thanks

I put in an AM/FM/Cassette player in mine and am removing it. I'd be happy to sell it to you at a great price since I'll have no use for it and eBay is a pain to deal with.

K here are some pics. This is the radio that came in my car. It is not for the audiophile but it sounds pretty good. When i took it out nothing was wrong with it and it worked fine. It just wasnt my style. I went a differnent route as many of you have seen in other posts. If you have any questions about it let me know.

i know a few places sell origional looking radios with a disc changer in the trunk. you said you already had made some mods, so i figured you might be interested. if you're gonna spend some bux you might as well get a little more outta it. i found one, i don't remember the site right now classicsound or something to that effect, and it looks like the stock unit, but has tape/am/fm and a disc changer in the trunk.

I couldn't find anything classic sound; I did find a website custom auto sound. Prices seem a little reasonable, anyone do any business with these guys?

Here are some adds in Dallas Mustang, NPD, and Mustangs Unlimited for the radio I would like to sell.
