    My Buddy had a late 80s early 90s Camaro, it was a similar color to that Jeep you see beside it.

    I'm betting that was a dealer installed stereo. Back in the day a factory cassette stereo was a fairly expensive option, dealers would order cars with base radios and then install the aftermarket tape player at the dealership.

    They were manufacturer specific direct fit radios: GM, Chrysler, etc. At a glance you wouldn't notice it wasn't a OEM unit. I remember seeing many Audiovox made Chrysler specific units, back then.

    Because it's so damn hot this weekend and because my parents want me to avoid getting COVID before we leave for California in a week, I didn't go to any car shows this weekend... :eek:

    However, I still got bored and went for a drive, surpassing 155K miles on the way back home!

    How about a near-mint 1985 chevy Citation II with less than 80K miles?

    I think most people do, but they've got a thriving fan base, with a forum not unlike TW!
