Here we have an extremely rare hard to find 1970 Ford Mustang AM FM stereo radio that was manufactured by Bendix. This radio would also fit a 1969 Mustang however only the 1970-71 models had the nomenclature "MUSTANG" stenciled on the dial . The FoMoCo engineering number on the side is D0ZA-19A241  0FBZ B.

  AM FM radios were quite rare options in the 1960's and early 1970's, especially on less expensive cars like Mustangs. Not very many were made due to the very high cost of the option and limited amount of FM stations in non urban areas. Most of the radios that were produced were tossed out years ago or are already installed in cars. Finding a real deal original 1970 Mustang AM FM Stereo radio today is quite a task. Don't miss this real deal factory AM FM Stereo radio. 

To clear up any confusion many Ford AM FM radios from the mid 60’s thru late 70’s will fit the opening of your 1970 Mustang but this is the correct one that would have come from the factory. This style nomenclature on the dial was only used on 1970 models.  If you show your car this is the AM FM radio you need to install to be Concours correct.

I recently tested it and determined it to be non-functional (see below). It will not play stations across the AM or FM dial. Since this radio does not appear to have been serviced for quite some time I will have to sell it “as is”.  It will need to be repaired by a professional to restore the sound quality and reception capability up to original factory specs or these can also be totally converted to modern day specs and features for the discriminating buyer that wants the original radio look combined with up-to-date sound and options.
