Hi Brett, I saw your car and looked it over for you at the Fall Tour. 
It is a very clean driver and with a lot of effort it could be a 
contender in a concours. On your question about getting CD's to play 
through your ASI radio you can buy a cheap cassette adaptor in Radio 
Shack. A very good source of audio information is Crutchfield. They 
have an 800# and a website @ crutchfield.com. They will help you with 
your choices and the prices are fair and the service is excellant. The 
ultimate choice is to replace the crummy OEM speakers and radio with 
something 20 years newer. Technology has improved immensly since the 
ASI radio was built. I have seen installations where the cd player is 
hidden in the "vault" behind the driver's seat, not too bad but you 
give up room in there which is small to begin with and you can't get 
to it while you are driving so you need a player that has multi-disk 
capability. It comes down to how much you want to spend, how much work 
you want to do, and how origional you want to keep the car.
