Anybody feel like discussing Old Mopar/Motorola hybrid AM radios?

I have limited experience with early Mopar radios. My dad had a 1955 Chrysler, in the early 60's the radio failed. My uncle was visiting us and had electronics from the Navy in WW2. He took a small multimeter, and tested the transistors, found a bad one, and replaced it with a transistor from a pocket radio, fixing it. The germanium transistors at that time were point contact, and were prone to failure.
