The RetroSound RetroRadio® looks like the original factory radio in your 1955-57 Ford Thunderbird while discretely adding all the modern audio features found in your daily driver. Classic push-buttons, replica knobs, and a period-correct bezel or faceplate combine with the radio's display to create a truly authentic look. Listen to your favorite local radio stations, stream your favorite SiriusXM® channel, or play your favorite music over Bluetooth® from your connected device, all with a classic style that blends seamlessly with your interior.
The bezel/faceplate and knob recommendations on this page offer the most period-correct style for your 1955-57 Ford Thunderbird. To completely customize your look check out our Build Your Own Radio page.
For a factory-like fit, RetroRadio includes RetroSound’s patented InfiniMount™ Brackets that can be adjusted during installation to achieve the proper width and depth of control shafts and a flush fitment of the Radio Face.
