I was just wondering if these one piece units are rare. Back in the late 60's when I had a Fairlane 500 2 dr hardtop, (wish I still had that one) I had found one in a junk yard and put it in mine. Eventually got rid of all my 57 stuff by my early 20's but always knew eventually I'd get another. Fast forward about 30 years I was at Ford Carlisle and found this one. Even though I didn't have any 57's at the time, I knew I would again. So now another dozen years or so later I have 2 wagons and the only one drivable is this 4 dr wagon, so I installed it in there. When I get my 2 dr wagon going it will have to be moved again. I really like them. So are they rare or not too hard to find? I'd like to aquire another one.
I believe they are rare and hard to find. Someone here a year or so back talked about having one.
I have one. I bought it eBay and it was not that expensive. I bought in June for about $45 including the shipping. I had never seen one before.
Wanna sell it?
I would consider selling it... I never installed it and I bought it for grins. Look at this thread...

Interesting stuff. I am interested in buying yours, Is it cut out for a standard radio?
Yes, the standard radio. It is a little pitted but I think overall it is in pretty good shape. Saw your message, I will be in touch in a day or so...out of town now.
They are not too common---my 57 ranch wagon came with one but alas it was broken due to previous owner radio retrofit---have occasionally seen them on ebay but not often--I just went back to individual pieces out of neccessity
