1958-1960 C1 RetroSound RetroRadio - Chrome
If you love the stock look of your 1958-1960 Corvette but you’re tired of pretending that AM radio is better than nothing, this RetroSound RetroRadio is the best of both worlds. It’s a retro-style direct replacement that fits like the factory unit and keeps your dash looking period-correct, but it brings your C1 into the modern era with Bluetooth 5.0 streaming, hands-free calling (mic included), and a strong built-in amplifier so your music can actually compete with that V8 soundtrack. No cutting, no trimming, no hacking up your interior; it installs clean, looks right, and delivers the features you actually use today. You also get an AM/FM RDS tuner with plenty of presets, an auxiliary input for wired devices, global tuning options, and non-volatile memory that remembers your settings even after power loss or battery disconnect. Chrome finish, chrome buttons, classic Corvette vibes, and modern audio that finally keeps up.
