I have a 68 Newport. I know you can send the thumb wheel radios to have them upgraded with blue tooth/am/fm ect
My question is can you buy a kit to do it yourself???
 
The company which supplies most of the add-in electronics to modernize old radios is called Aurora Design. However, they don't want to deal with the public (I tried) and will only sell to radio restoration/conversion specialist shops to do the installation.

Instead I purchased a RetroSound Redondo radio, which is a new stereo with USB, bluetooth, etc. designed to replace a factory Mopar radio using the original faceplate. I just started getting ready to install mine last night. Mine uses the two shafts but they also sell a version of the Redondo with thumbwheel controls.

The Redondo radios have an LED digital display but you can get screen protectors with a picture of an AM tuning dial on them so that the radio will look completely stock when it is off.
