MYSTERY MOPAR GAME!

1970 was the last year you could get it.  I'm having a tough time figguring out who got it right  I think technically 59 is right.  He said 1971 it was discontinued.  But the last year was 70 Bigs said.  You guys/gals call it.

My vote is for BIGS.  59 stated they were discontinued in '71, but that was after that model year. Am I stirring up trouble here or what?

Well, I think cause you settled it then BIGS is up.  That way when 59 comes back he can blame you....

According to my listings ....  OK onto the next question....

In what year did MOPAR first install transistor radios?

[moparmaniac59]

That's a good question.  I know transistor radios came on the scene long before they were installed in automobiles. I believe Motorola was the first company to introduce a small transistorized radio for an automobile in 1956. So I'll say 1956. That's my final answer. Can I use a life-line??

I smell another trick question here  .  Do you mean a 100% solid state radio?  ...Er maybe I just think too much?

I smell another trick question here  . 

 :clueless:I too smell a trick!! I had to do some diggin, but one of the sources I checked states "In 1956 Chrysler introduced the transistorized radio" Soooo was it installed in 1956???

VEERRRRRYYYYYYYYYY Close!

[MEK-Dangerfield]

My train of thought was that they might have been hybrids for a while like TV's. Half-solid state, and half tubes. So I was thinking about guessing in the mid to late 1970's. I guess by all this babbling you can figure out I don't know the answer.
