I really don't know outside of that.

Try to find one in North America in pre internet 1975! Think I paid more than what the car was worth.

Mine was a 5600 limit but I think they all looked the same.

They had a spring in it and would ground out at a set rpm. They were expensive, and sucked.

Holly shit. My car came stock with one, and I threw mine out years ago. Stupidest radio ever. Had I known someday someone would actually want a radio with a microphone.

Always loved the Ghia. Yes, they look the same. I only know the one I have is 6500 because it still has the sticker on the side.

If I had kept some of the shit my dad threw away when I was younger I'd be a millionaire.

The one on the right is a high performance unit as it has less rotating mass.
