My neighbor stopped over last evening to check out the Lark. While sitting in the front seat he inquired about the lockable radio under the dash. I said it was so it could be removed to avoid theft which is what I was told. He pulled out the antenna and said that there must be more to it than that. So we took it out and took a look. Turns out it has a space for 6 C cell batteries and then becomes a take it anywhere transistor AM radio.
Well that was interesting in and of itself but at some point I had said that I hoped it didn't turn out that the car was like Christine from the movie and be possessed. Well lo and behold I turned it on and twisted the dial and a Doo- wop song comes on followed by another and another. I won't say the hair stood up on my neck but by this time his wife and mine had joined us and we were all a little creeped out. Turns out it was a local station playing a half hour of 50's tunes and my timing had been perfect.
I never listen to AM local or otherwise so had no clue. Here are a couple pics.
