Radio restoration?
I have an 86 camaro with a wornout radio, are there and companies that restore these old 1.5 din units?

Not appearance wise, but you can send it to MNR in Michigan for the internal circuits.

M&R refurbished my UT4 GTA radio and it turned out great, it actually picks up radio stations, the cassette player works again, and they added an AUX to play music off the phone.

I restore Delco Radios for TGO members. I can also add an AUX jack or Bluetooth as well. I’m pretty familiar with most 80s-90’s radios but post a picture of your radio if possible just so I can see what you’ve got to work with.

M&R rebuilt mine as well. Did amazing job. It also got damaged in return so they did everything you would expect to fix it back. They are amazing!
