op:
These are what I have in my old Suburban; a Uniden Bearcat PC68XL into a K40 4' Fiberglass antenna mounted on the R/F fender at the edge of the hood and a Yaesu FT8000R 2m/70cm into a Tucker Twin Band magnetic mount antenna stuck on the roof. The console box that contains them is a homemade box. I designed it so the radios are level with my eye to prevent glare and so that I can easily slide each radio out as needed. It is made of wood and just covered with some vinyl that is close to the same color as the interior. The external speakers really help me to hear the radios in a noisy mobile environment. The entire package is pretty much self-contained except for antennas and the power supply. For protection I keep a gray towel draped over them when not in use to keep thieving prying eyes from lusting for a pawn shop loan.

There are some fantastic pics there.
Loving it - some works of automotive art in the USA.
I grew up looking at you guys cars such as Corvettes, Chargers, Mustangs wishing I could have one.
My own favourite was the El Camino - that vehicle makes me moist!
But at nearly 12 dollars for a Gallon of Gasoline / Petrol here - Compact and Diesel cars are king.
Any way - I digress;
I won't show a pic of my car because its like something off Waynes World.
Search for a 1998 Fiat Punto (don't know if they are available over there) and see what I mean!
But its got a 12v Battery!
My gear is a President Lincoln, or, a President George - both Barefoot through a 9ft Whip.
Have a great day.

My early 90's 148GTL and 40 channel Vertex VHF stuffed into a 2005 Freightliner. CB runs through a 5' Wilson. VHFs are used almost exclusively by truckers in Western Canada.
