I have a restored 1935 radio that I want to list for sale. Although I think it's a 1935 Standard other folks have other opinions. Any help on accurately identifying what I have would be appreciated.

The Head is a 35 Standard. Can't see the picture of the Radio but it looks like a 35 Master. Don't know on Speaker.

Thanks for the info - it's been restored by Raymond Holland and came with a '33 Standard. I was sure it wasn't for the '33 Standard, so I set it aside. In your opinion would $4-500 be a fair price?

The dial color indicates it is a 1934 as it matches 1934 instrument gauge faces.
Also the one dark brown knob matches 1934 dash knobs.

Again, Gene is right. Closer look shows it is a 34 Head. I cannot find a picture of this Head with a Radio so I don't know if the Radio is correct.

Thanks - wanting to list it for sale. Is the price I stated above fair - really hope it can go to the right owner of a '34 Chevy?

Are both knobs Brown as one looks like it isn't but maybe due to angle or light. 34-35 Standard Radios of this type are very rare. Your price is probably in the ball park if that Radio is the right one. But it always depends on if someone wants it that bad. This is just my opinion, others may disagree. I've ever only seen two 34-35 Standard Radio Heads. Ones' in my 35 Standard, the other I traded to Ray Holland. Most of those cars never had one.

That's good as they should be. Those knobs are impossible to find. Heads without them aren't worth much.

I would think that the asking price could be higher, maybe even double . However it may take a long time to get it. Make sure you mention that it was restored by Ray, tgat is a big plus.


My 1951 1 Ton is now on the road! My 38 Master 4 Door is also now on the road .

Might get that in Canada, not in the US. Believe me, I've sold plenty of them. But like all 30's Chevy stuff, there is getting to be fewer and fewer of them. Last three swap meets I went to there was nothing for Chevies.

Check what it costs to get a unit restored. I paid $250 25 years ago.

There's a Door right now for $100.00 in the G&D. No Clock or Ash Tray.
