The speakers, and music itself, is merely supplemental to the sound of being in a 383 convertible with glasspacks. That's where the real music is made. So I guess I can't say I will hear how great the speakers are in the end anyway. I got the radio ordered a year and a half ago and only put it...

It really was! I used R&B Vintage Radio (randbvintageradio.com), and Richard was exceptional. It's the original AM radio back in its place looking exactly like it always did, except now with a working radio lamp! He was also very attentive and interested in the process of this issue as well...

This was 100% the issue. Everything is working perfectly now. Thanks for the idea! It was going to end up being fairly easily traced out as I went through it, but this gave me a pretty clear target, and I never would have understood why that wiring was even there. It was a good opportunity to...

Thank you! That's ex eptiobally helpful. Hoping to be able to dig into that this weekend if I can't find time through the week.

Thanks. That's my plan. I'm going to start by cleaning out the stuff from the unused tach and trying to determine what may have been. I can then work my way back from the ignition coil to see where that was tied together, assuming that's the issue. While this is a mess of a wiring nest, I'm an...

I took it out and reinstalled it exactly as it was, but I did not do the radio rebuild. The tach theory shared below actually may make sense. Looks like I've got a pile of wire to sort through (it's a real rat's nest under that dash).

It's wired back up exactly as it was taken apart, but clearly something is wrong. I'm going to investigate the tach theory shared below.

This actually makes the sense. This was my dad's car, and he passed away when I was pretty young. Until a few years ago, it's been in my mom's garage without a lot of action. There has always been a cheap aftermarket tach attached to the steering column, but to my knowledge it's never been...

I recently had the original radio in my '65 Fury III convertible rebuilt with FM, aux input, and Bluetooth capabilities. I replaced the old cracked speakers at the same time with new speakers designed for stereo sound. It sounds amazing, but the car won't start with it hooked up even when the...

I just brought home a 1965 Plymouth Fury 3 convertible that's been in my family a long time. My dad had a '65 Sport Fury when he was younger and eventually transitioned from a motorcycle to this Fury 3 as a family toy. He had it a mere 5 years before cancer took him, and it's mostly sat in my...

Did you ever have any luck finding a good mounting spot. I just brought a 65 Fury 3 home and am looking to add a seat belt or two to the back seat, but I don't see anything obvious.
