Hi Douglas ~ In addition to phonographs, RCA theremin, player piano and old cars, we both have the 1941 Chevrolet 5-band shortwave radio. The difference is that you have the car that fits the radio! I also have a 1942 Chevrolet 5-band shortwave radio, but it's missing the front dial surround assembly. This isn't meant to be a serious comparison. Though I do have those items, my collection is very small and simple.
Thanks for sharing this exciting list of automobiles. I can just picture the porcelain on those Cadillac exhaust manifolds. Closest I ever got to something like this was doing wiring harness work and a radio overhaul on a local collector's '37 LaSalle.
