SECTION 3 - INTERIOR
Radio
Both manual "Starliner" (AC-2748) and automatic tuning "Stratoline" (AC-2747) radios came with
a chrome bezel.
The chrome knob on
the right side is a
dummy knob (part
number 1540369) on
the manual tune
radio, but is the rear
seat speaker switch
control knob (part
number 1540370) on
the automatic tune radio. This control knob was
locked in place, by a pin, for the front speaker if
the rear seat speaker option was not included
with the car.
An RCA plug jack for the rear seat speaker wire was on
the right side of the radio, behind the dash, on automatic
tuning radios.
The volume control and tuning
knobs are black with a chrome
center. The rear seat speaker
option was not available on the
manual tune radio.
