I think the dealers removed the Pinninfarina plate from the dash and 
installed radios in the USA; could be wrong.  My 71 spider had what I'd guess 
was the original radio, which was a mono AM-FM 5 button Becker (Mexico?) with 
the speaker mounted under the console behind the radio and pointing down at 
the floor like heat ducts.

91 spider radio says Alfa Romeo but I think it is a Clarion.
