I chose to stick with the all original stereo

TA301:
Just completed a full restoration of the dash end of my 1981 TA, including a $1700 dash reskin by Just Dashes. I installed the original Delco 2700 stereo cassette player. In my opinion, it is cool to use the correct audio and listen to AM or FM radio as well as cassette tapes, just like back in the day. I recorded current music onto high quality cassette tapes using a recorder designed for that purpose. I also acquired additional period correct [80s] cassette tapes to supplement the authenticity of the car.

I can see that.  The lights went out in my 80's vintage Alpine in my 71 - may see if I can repair a Delco knockoff Audiovox from the 70's as a more correct appearing unit.

Wallington:
Have you tried something like this? A cassette unit with cable attached that goes to your ipod or whatever. I've never had one, or any sort of playlist. It can just be done without any mods, if you have one.

I agree. Kind of wish my car had a factory cassette player, as that’s what I grew up with. 8 track was before my time but I installed an AM-FM stereo and console 8 track in my 77. I ran both through a Bluetooth enabled amp that drives 4 modern speakers so, though I can’t say I get the best of both worlds I get good enough with them lol. It serves my purpose well. Just was messing with the 8 track the other night. (I still need to speed it up just a tad bit)
