youd have to do what most people do leave the original in/hooked to power so it looks like it work then install a newer radio thats actually hooked to the speakers in another place like hide it in the glove box so itll look factory but you can still have good tunes.

Or you could buy a factory looking radio from someone like http://www.vintagecarradio.com/index.html

for mine i got a second radio faceplate and cut it to accept a din mount radio .. I got it from Crutchfield. stereo cd with mp3 and mounted speakers in kickpanels and in the rear in side panels under window by my rear seat. but i wasnt trying  to stay stock but it was an easy install for me.. roy
