I have a 49 Chevy Styleline and I'm trying to remove the radio. I have taken off the knobs and the nuts for the volumn and tuner. I have taken off the nut on the stud at the top of the radio. The radio is still firmly attached.

I can't find any radio or accessory manual and the regular shop manual doesn't list anything about removing thee radio.

Can anyone help me out?

thanks, Bill

Bill, This link is a later year, but may help.

I've seen this site before but the 49 is a different animal...I was hoping someone had the 49 instructions or had taken one out before.

Thanks for the help, Bill

I got it out...I had to remove the chrome bezels and it came right out.

Dear Bill;

Be very careful with the cables that attach the tuner to the speaker amp. as that radio is a two piece unit.

There's a guy in Washington state that rebuilds old car radios.

Good luck.

Who is the guy in Washington State that restores old radios? Need info please.

Much thanks,

Butch
