    Bob, if you are still needing a 55 body, it is time to check craigslist, New Mexico, Albuquerque.  Put in 1955 as the search item.  There are some new ones there, let me know if I can look at any for you.

    Not an electronics geek but I understand you can get a radio now that has a plug in for an MP3 player.  I use and MP3 player  (Apple Shuffle) witch is the size of a stick of gum and hold 500 songs.  The sound quality is great too.  No need for a bunch of CDs.  At a show you can clip the MP3 player to you and use earbuds then zone out.

    Certain CD players can also read CD's in MP3 (data) format.  So, you can have a CD with several hundred songs on it too.  But, as above, the easiest thing is to have a radio with a MP3 input, and just plug in a MP3 player (like an iPod).  MC

    Bsa Bob....I have a Kenwood radio / cd / everything in my car. I won it ! I know absolutely ZERO about it but I found out it had an USB port? Duh? Long story short, my kid put about 15 CDs on this thing called a "flash drive" (another Duh?) It's the size on your thumb and works great. No more CDs for me. Now I have to learn how to operate the radio. Man, it's tough getty old!

    Sorry Jim,

    am radios use tubes and they are power eaters.  Because they eat power your gas milage goes down, more power must be used to run the radio than goes to the rear wheels.  This causes a condition usually know as "Ford Power".   You can do one of two things.  Dig a big hole and bury the radio (don't let the EPA find out) or you can get a triangle "slow moving" sign for the back.  This is also know as the Amish Power.  Look at their wagon and go to the front and count the horsepower.  This comes full circle to "Ford Powered"!  Thik I'll get hate mail?

    In answer to Bob's question emusic.com is what I use.  I download to computer then to MP3 player, I assume you could do to CD.  But I have 541 song's on my player and that would be a butt load of CD's to have to carry around.  Player plug's into Radio with USB cord.

    I've had very little trouble with Emusic, when I have had download problem they have always responded and kept me happycheeky.  Plus their prices are about half of  iTunes prices.

    most new radios dont come with cd players any more. they have a plug port for ipod or memory cards. below the a/c vents is the port.

    RS luggoboy -------------Yes i made the mistake of putting a nice  new radio between her and i , in the seat riser of my t-bucket back in 68. It was one of the worst dollars i had spent [useless NEW!! radio] Course -----it wasn't all in vain . i could get a hold of her leg....and tell her i was hunting for the radio occasionally, that was a plus.But for music it was a loss , there was no such thing as head phones.   I was told here----- to put my music on a i-pod and take it with me in each hotrod when i go.  NOOO------- that isn't what i'm looking for.I want to hear it thru my speakers.This plug into the radio is what i wil do i think  thanks all   bob s
