Title: 70's vintage Balupunkt Berlin stalk radio Post by: Cornpanzer on April 01, 2010, 19:41:53 pm I didn't want to sell this radio, but a new engine for my 911 means I have to dig up some more cash.
This was the state of the art in car audio circa 1977. The system is made up of an amplifier unit, a dash mounted cassette recorder/player and a "space-age" stalk mounted head unit. It even includes the uber-rare microphone for dictating notes while you storm the alps in your early 911. (or buzz down Orangethorpe in yourCal-Look car) ;D This unit sold new for $1,100.00 in 1977! Unit has only been tested to power up. It powers up, lights all work, cassette player functions seem to work (ff/rew, dir change). Tuner selector works. However, I did not have an antenna or a speaker to fully test the output of the radio. I have no reason to believe that there is any problems, but I cannot guarantee this. Darryl Vittone had one just like this in his 911 back in 78 Asking $300 plus shipping.

Way out for the time.
