I have a thumb wheel am 8 track unit that was in my 70 Charger R/T. Although apropriate for the car (coded for an am 8 track), the unit says solid state by plymouth on the front lens cover rather than Chrysler solid state. Does anyone know what this particluar unit should go in. I know the Chargers said Dodge solid state in 68 and 69 - 70 when it changed to Chrysler solid state. So I am curious about this one. And if someone has the apropriate Chrysler lens piece I would be interested in one as I don't want to let this unit go (it works)

Looks like it's for a '68 - '70 Plymouth B-body. The 8-tracks had the thumbwheel knobs.
Is there a sticker with a part number on it?  :shruggy:

The only identifying marks are on the sides with 400b and 20 on one side and 745 with either 17 or 12 stamped on the other. i opened the cover and found a patent pending sticker, but that was about it

 My observation has been that it was 1970 when the "Chrysler" name started being used on all radios. Before that, in 68 & 69 there was "Dodge", "Plymouth" and even "Dart" names on radios. I believe your am/8 track radio would be correct for 68 & 69 Plymouth B bodies.
