Who's got a doner radio???

I'm steadily plugging away at the ol' CJ5. today I picked up the last brake hose, ordered a roll of 3/16" brake line, and a box of flare nuts, hammer and dollied the big ol' dents outta the fenders, and installed an AHH-OOO-GAA horn. THis week should see a bunch of welding, the gas tank going back in, brake lines in, new tires on.
So hoping that this thing will be road ready soon, I need a good Ol' AM/FM two knob radio to replace the crippled unit that's crusted into the dash at present.
I have an XM radio that's going in the glove box, with a built in FM modulator, and my MP3 player has a modulator as well, so all I really need is an AM/FM unit. And I just can't bring myself to buy a new unit.
Somebody out there has to have an old Two knob unit that worked a little to well to throw out, but just isen't going into anything, cause you want a CD player.
I have a flat faced unit, but I don't want to cut the hole in the dash out to accept it (and it's a kenwood tape deck, that's got doinky controls)
SO if you have an "old reliable" circa 1980 vintage two knob AM/FM, or AM/FM cassette, Let's talk
 
Hi Ben,
What would you say to an old Jensen Model CR225X two knob AM/FM cassette deck with digital display?
Take a look at the attached file.
Its yours for postage.

Hehehehe. my plan is working ~wrings hands~ I knew you guys would have a plethora of obsolete radios hanging around, waiting for a project such as this.
Thanks for the offers.
RomanH, Truely appreciated, but it's a little "modern" looking for this application. If this Jeep was modified, with big swampers, and racing buckets it would be perfect.
Steve, Any chance I could see a pic?
hehehehe.... This is kinda like fishing.
 
Hot off the press...

I should mention that the radio was handed to me as you see it and I don't know for sure what condition it's in functionally. I am only assuming it works because it's in good condition. But as I said, it's free for the shipping cost.
 
Cool. That's more along the lines of what I was thinking.
I bet that would work well.
Send me an email if you would and I can give you my info.
