What would a Am radio in working condition be worth and good cosmetic condition , , One for a 70 Challenger has buttons not and thumb wheels correct? I see them on ebay for 65$ but does not look good.

Put it on Ebay and find out, surely to bring more than the others if it's nice.  :alan2cents:

If it's super nice, I would think $100.    :notsure:  I think they can be hard to find in good working condition so on eBay you might get a little more.

I forgot to say that I am buying it, just curious of the value. I know its difficult to put a price on sight unseen. I have seen pictures and it looks very good, SO is $200 too much?

$200 is on the high end....I bought a nice one last month for $150 CDN... :alan2cents:

I agree that $200 USD seems a but high.
Contrary to the opinions of some, I am not dumber than I look.

$200 does seem on the high side if it's not been gone through to make sure it's good.

Normally when I need a radio, I let Greg Ward know and he normally can find me one and go through it for a really good price.  He often gets the 72+ radios and gets them looking and working good then sells them for pretty cheap (around $150 shipped).  I think he sells refurbished 70/71's for around $225.    :bigthumb:
