Just some more pics of the bird from the other night:)

Also is there a way to get the cassette player working? Sometimes the radio works and sometimes it doesn't but the cassette player hasn't worked at all since I have had it, if anyone knows:) 

Thanks

It might be easier and cheaper to buy a used stock replacement AM/FM/cassette radio online, some may even have a warranty. Radios in those days were pretty universally and interchangeable, so you don’t necessarily need to find one out of a Firebird. You might find one out of (say)a Buick or a Chevy.

There are a handful of old radio repair guys out there. I have no idea how much they might charge to repair.

I think buying a replacement would be easier too. The only speaker that works in the car is the speaker on the driver door, the passenger door speaker I think would need to be replaced aswell cause it makes a weird noise when it's connected. And the speakers in the back were disconnected but I don't think they work either. Would I be able to find replacement speakers? 

Yes those speakers were not high quality back in the day. Underdssh, in-door or rear speakers are readily available from catalogs or stereo shops in most cases. Depending on what you have in the car, it maybe necessary to put different connectors on the wires going to the speakers, but that is an easy job.

Always like pic's, thankz.  You would have to test each speaker.  If you have 2 that work, install in front and replace the rears with a matching set.  Not sure if Orielly's or Autozone  (your auto parts store)  still have audio supplies.  Replace in sets no matter how it works out for your needs.

Thanks! I'll have to check at both of those stores😄
