Hank I'm looking for a TM-1081ZB(S).

See my wanted thread here:

I have a later 72 model radio (missing switch for antenna) I'm willing to trade also!

Gav - I thought you require a TM-1081ZA and already have a couple of TM-1081ZB radios ? Or am I confused (my typical state of mind) .

Hi Hank,

As far as we can tell the difference between the 2 is Red light for the 'A' and Green for the 'B'.

You are correct I already have 2, but chasing a third unit if I can find 1. I don't mind if it is A or B. Missing antenna switch or faceplate, will basically take what I can get.

Gav - I think I'll hang on to the radio for now but if I decide to get rid of it, I'll get in touch.

cheers

Thanks, I may have found 1 so fingers crossed. But let me know if you do change your mind. As I haven't fully tested all mine and hopefully they can be repaired if needed.

Hi Gang... So glad I still have mine! guess I'm a lucky dog! Just think how many of these were trashed for "upgrades" :unsure: Crazy!

Speaking of the original z radios I'm looking for the manual that came with the car.

I have all the other original documents for my car, maintanance log, plastic card for dealer with vin and other information specific to the car... Folder it tucks into, original window sticker ( cool find) Etc... The car is very well documented. But I realized that most Z's also came with a manual for the hitachi radio, and since mine is still installed and in great working order, Id like to add this to complete my manuals. Reproductions can be found at the z store, but I'd like an original, if possible... (Can you say purest! Lol!) Also some Z's came with a manual that just had in large print AM/FM... I've only seen this in one car, but I'm curious, and would like either or both. If you stumble across either one, have a source for either, or don't have a need for yours, since you no longer have the radio, please contact me!
