I've seen them mentioned in articles on restored E and A bodies that got them as an option. Seems to be some sort of holy grail of options. Probably even more so than us 67-68 Fury guys who find an AM-FM radio. lol.

An FM radio would be mind blowing, happy to swap a cassette player for one!!!

muscle car guys pay big bucks for them because they were a rarely ordered option on b & e bodies. usually ordered on the expensive models, and also because the 8 track was still king then too ! most of the guys i know who have restored cudas/challengers/road runner/gtxs seem to consider these the final thing to finish off a high dollar resto. i don't think they realise that these were available on c bodies so thats why the prices are high.

The 67-68 AM-FM Fury radios pop up now and then. I'm happy the AM radio I have works well, though if I ever get the chance, I'd pounce on an original AM-FM. I built a console for my VIP that holds a modern AM-FM-CD-thumb drive stereo. One of these days, I'd like to swap that out for one of those Retro Sound units and something more period looking at least.
