Cleaned a little in the garage and found this one.
Mopar Model x100
Is anyone who knows what this is, seems to be some sort of additive to a radio.
What does it fit for?
I'm unable to find anything about the model on google

Chrysler wasn't in the business of making any sort of electronic receiver / tuner equipment so they had to contract some electronics company to make whatever this is. Open it up and look for evidence of the actual manufacturing company and perhaps that co's model number. Then take it to a company like a Radio Shack or whatever you have local and ask them to help identify it.

Could be some kind of antenna booster but just guessing.

Looks like a 40's or 50's vintage faceplate - possibly an early AM radio, or as suggested a booster?

Maybe ask these guys . . .

If you can clean up the little sticker it will probably tell a lot more.
But a radio signal booster would sound plausible.

It is a short-wave radio Chrysler made in the late 50's mainly for export.
Nifty! John Quinn's dad worked for Chrysler and he gave one of these to John.

Thanks a lot, with your help I found a thread from 2009.
Now I know what it is. In the thread from 2009 it's a X101, mine is a little different on the backside and named x100.
I will try to get it to work, can be exciting

Yeah, the frequency range gives it away...gives coverage of 19, 25, 31 and 49-meter stations.
