Thanks everyone, for the replies and info.

Regardless of when the radio was manufactured, it'll fit with the rest of my collection because it *looks* old...well, it really is old, just not as old as most of the others.

I'll repeat what I said about being slightly confused about the era when solid state became the norm, 'cause like I said, solid state in car audio was common in the late 50s...and by 1962 or so solid state Am/Fm was available in many cars.
