I can not quite remeber what the pre-war radio control mechanisms look like nor how strong they are. Maybe one of those to operate the inaccessible T'stat/compressor switch?????

"My 38 came equipped with a radio but the part under the dash wasn't in the car when I got it. The stock Packard volume and tuning cables still turned freely so I hatched a plan to use the stock controls to work my new radio. It took a bit of hunting but I found a radio (Walmart of all places) that still used mechanical knobs for both volume and tuning. I made up some couplings and attached them to the knobs"
