am fm 8 track radio mounting

When I purchased my 74 el camino somone had put a cd player where the original radio goes. I have removed the cd player and bought a bezel with the original radio knob holes in it and I'm kind of stopped at this point. The part of the actual dash where the knobs went through has been cut....but I'm not sure how to mount this thing in the car. Does anyone know if there is a bracket or something that goes on here? Anybody have any pics? Thanks!

with out the holes for the knobs you will have a fun time mounting that

YOu are going to have to try and make some kind of bracket to hold the radio in the right spot so the dash bezel goes over it sort of eye it .The radio is kinda big so its not going to be that tough.Maybe get a helper put on the new dash bezel and have helper move the radio around till it looks good. I did it too but with an aftermarket radio called a retro sound.It was tough since the new one was so small but looked kinda stock once it was all mounted. I dont care for modern radios in a nice stockish type car .Ruins the atmosphere inside.

ok so i need to figure out a way to get the front part back...maybe hit a junk yard and fiberglass the fron piece on as it will be hidden behine the bezel...But what holds the back of it up???? Is it a side mount? A mount on the back?

See this part of you dash that is hold MOST .... I SAY AGAIN MOST of our year radios in there you can ad some of that muffler wrap strap stuff that has holes in it and secure it fire wall to keep from bouncing

dammit always something

The back is held up by the bracket that bolts to the sides there isnt anything back there try the muffler strap method . Bolt it to the radio then find a spot behind the dash to bolt the other end.You might be able to make the front mounting holes from a sheet of counter top sample (formica) its strong.

ok there is a metal piece that would run alone the side of the radio inside the dash on the driver's side...is this where that bracket would go? Does it bolt to that and the radio? Do you have any pics? Do you know where i can get one?

awesome man thanks...yea that bracket still exists...that made my day....let me know what I owe you for shipping and send me a pay pal invoice using my email address....that really makes my day...awesome

Ok I got the piece to fix the dash...it was a nice cut out from the part that holds the climate control all the way to a litle more than the bottom...than from diver's side knob mount to a little more than passenger side mounts. My radio hole had just a majority of the knob supports cut out...the rest was still there. After considering many options involving stucture support and effort vs result; I ended up trimming the piece around the perimerter to fit just under the middle of the climate control suppot...then to the bottom inside of the radio cut out...then from radio knob support to radio knob support. So, basically an overlay. I made all cuts with an pnematic dremal and a thin cut off disc. I then took the disc and shaved all the rased support molding and the mold on the back that holds the theads for the screw to the bezel....it fit great and fit flush. I placed the bezel over the dash and there was no gap! It has worked perfect so far. The only thing I have to due is figure out how I'm going to fasten it. Either small screws or epoxy of some sort, but it actually feels like its sandwiched enough to supoport itself. I will still fasten it though

let me know what I owe you thanks again

your email = pay pal?
