Re: AM radio to FM conversions

I highly recommend Gary Tayman. I had my am radio converted to am/fm 3 years ago and have had no problems with it and I love it.

Re: AM radio to FM conversions

Not trying to over-step, but if you have a good working AM radio you can place an input line. This input line would let you play an MP3 with FM radio campabilities through your delco and single speaker. Input line is covered in the FAQ Audio section, and is minimal cost. The MP3 with FM radio are on ebay for 10-20$. If you are looking for big audiophile quality I agree with the above recommendations. Could also consider wonderbarman.com. He is expensive but he can also add an out-put line that can power an amp and multiple speakers through an AM Delco. Bruce

I've seen the part to do the conversion online but it appears the companies that supply the parts only sell to installers

Re: AM radio to FM conversions

I know this is not an AM/FM conversion but Mike puts together a very high quality reproduction stereo with AUX input and even the original rollover face. Price is on the steeper side but it shows in the quality and accuracy of the piece.
