  Anyone know of a radio/cd player that is an exact fit for the radio space in the dash on a 1940 Ford?

  Most of the AM/FM/CD units I've seen were mounted in the glove box, and concealed by the door. Original radios can be converted to AM/FM, but I haven't seen a CD type. My '47 has a converted radio that looks absolutely stock. Many car CD units can be received on the FM band, so only the disk player would need to be concealed, and I've seen some that were trunk mounted, too.

  I'm rethinking this. I think I'll just listen to the pipes, pretty sweet music there.

  Mr. 40's Fatstuff lists a direct fit radio for the 40 Ford.

  Slide,
Vintage Vibes has a couple that will fit into the '40's dash with a faceplate. http://www.vintagevibes.net/
