Default Delco Radio for Europe

Hi all

I have my chevy on restoration , after found it stoped in a farm under two trees ...I wanted to find the original radio cassette but its very dificult to find here at Spain but I have friends in WI and ussualy go to USA by job so I can import it but . I know the USA broadcast is different than Europe but I found some information how to modify the circuit on some models using DM246 PLL processor. I have skill in electronics ...
I think about some model between 87 and 95 , there are a lot of models like 16041551 than is possible to adapt on my car .

someone know where i cand find extended information for delco? I didn,t find any official web page...

Oh boy. You have set yourself a challenge. I can't help beyond suggesting you might ask some questions at some electronics/radio online forums and see if you get any good advice from there.

I would suggest maybe an eBay site from a nearby European country, or check out some of the salvage yards across the continent.

I have stumbled upon a few Swedish salvage yard sites, and am always jealous of all the cool stuff they have over there. Too expensive to ship here, for my budget, at least.

Default surprised with radio tunning

hi all
I received the radio and check it and I am surprised because it is capable to tune 50khz steps at FM and 9khz at AM , it means it is working at Europe . at display it's showing 50 when tuning manually .
someone have this radio and is it showing 50 at display ?
my radio is 16192465 Delco

Then you got lucky and hit a radio from 95 or 96 and later.

The older like my 94 can not be swapped to the 9kHz stepping. I have completely removed the OEM radio and used it's connector to make a harness which plugs into the factory connector. The older than 95 Blazers will need some spacer in the dash thou because the OEM radio is shorter (depth) than a standard ISO rack.
