No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"

...A SHITTY ONE!
Hilariously enough, that's not even the right radio OR the right car. That's one of the pre-production models. You can tell by the windows.

Actually, that's Proto 1 and *possibly* the same radio that was in Proto 1 at the time of this campaign in mid-70s.
So for the period in which the ad was run, it's correct.
Finally, the Craig radio was a better than average radio for the era, as well. Two of the earliest employees left Craig in the early 70s to form Pioneer.
Dermot, thanks for posting that ad, I've been looking for it.

You're welcome James. It's not often the flow of information is reversed
