Hello Bill,

When we bought our '64 Greenbrier the PO kept the radio as part of the 
deal.  He had put 4" speakers in the bottom of the front doors and kept 
these too.  I installed a Realistic (Radio Shack) AM/FM/Cassette in the 
stock location and opened up the holes in the doors to fit a pair of 
Realistic 6 X 9 coaxial speakers.  So far I have had no problem with 
jarring of the speakers by door closing, however this setup is okay for the 
front seat passengers only.  I have future plans to install an additional 
pair of 6 X 9's in the rear corners, but I need to fashion some panels out 
of at least 1/4 or 3/8" plywood.

I already have plans for a sound system to be installed in a '63 Greenbrier 
we plan to restore as a modified "Convention Cruiser."  I already have a 
Blaupunkt AM/FM/CD head unit that will be installed most likely in the 
center-dash ashtray panel.  This will feed a set of component (6-1/2" 
woofer & separate tweeter) speakers in the front doors, a second pair of 
component speakers in the rearmost side door and opposing panel, and a 
separate amp to power subwoofers mounted in sealed enclosures in the rear 
corners.  Of course this might be subject to change depending on what I can 
get at a good price on eBay.
