Since most folks don't hang around long enough to listen to
what's playing on your radio, try this instead:
Have one of those FM conversions done, but have the guy
install input jacks on the side of the radio. Then program your iPod-like device
with many hours of oldies. When you go to a show, plug your iPod into the radio
and press 'play'. Or another idea is to buy an iTrip type device, which is a
small transmitter that sends a signal from the iPod to an unused frequency on
the FM dial, saving the trouble of installing the input jacks into the original
radio. You'll have to leave your car on Accessory, so it may drain the battery
after a while.
Oh yeah, and don't walk away from your car with the keys in
the ignition.

I recently purchased
a CD with old AM radio R&R disc jockey shows on it. Let me tell you,
it doesn?t seem at all as cool as it did then. R&R didn?t really
start rockin? until 1956, although Bill Haley and his Comets recorded Rock
Around the Clock in 1954, it was still the top R&R song in 1955. It
took Elvis to really set the R&R radio shows on
fire.
I have also seen
drive-in movie speakers converted to radio speakers, set on poles outside the
car. This is a cool idea that avoids chopping up the old
radio.

I often had this thought that it
would be cool if I were at a car show with the ?55 and turned on the radio and
it started playing songs and DJ and show names like they would have been in
the 50s; sort of Twilight Zone stuff. I bet some electronics whiz could
make it work the same way that XM radio transmits to FM radios in the
car.
