The 81-83 Imperials had up to five choices of radios depending on year.
AM/FM 8 track, AM/FM Cassette, AM/FM, w/ CB, Electric tune AM/FM and
Electronic tune AM/FM cassette. They were all choices not options. The cloth
or leather was also a choice , as well as the wheels. The only true options
offered were the Sunroof in 81 only, and the Frank Sinatra package in 81 and
82 only. Bob
