>>>> I'll do so 

vintage Telefunken and Becker tube radios are VERY!!!! expensive.  They also have only AM. (big problem in germany, were all AM broadcasting is switched off.)

I have a Philips Paladin 551 in my 170Sb. Works excellent on AM and FM.
Tube radio, build from approx. 1953 until 1955.
Wonderfull chome preset push buttons for M-M-L-U-U (AM and FM).

Price in europe is quite better than for Telefunken and Becker radios (several 100 Euro, depends on condition). Sometimes to find on Ebay (www.ebay.nl or www.ebay.de)

Very nice to use a cheap FM transmitter to broadcast your own musik to your vintage car from an mp3 player.

Kind regards from Germany
