Fern, I just installed a stereo radio conversion in my 56 Dodge. The shop that did the conversion to my 56 Dodge Town & Country radio is S & M Electro-Tech, 763-780-2861, http://www.turnswitch.com The sound is terrific. I replaced the original speakers with the speakers they sell. These speakers are custom made for this conversion, which puts out 22 watts per channel. This is way too much power for the old speakers. The new speakers come in both 6x9 and 5x7 sizes. They are not the old technology dual magnet speakers shown on the web site, but use a much smaller new technology ceramic magnet that is 10 times more powerful for its size. I highly recommend this shop. There are numerous shops around the country that convert old radios to a modern stereo. They ALL use the conversion parts that come from this one source: http://www.antiqueautomobileradio.com/ This web site has detailed info on the conversion specs. They also have a variety of speakers.

Thanks from Fern
