Sometime in the 1980s I bought an under-the-dash FM converter which worked by converting
FM signals to 1400 AM and feeding them into the existing car radio, which had to be set at
1400 to hear the FM. Eventually, I took over my parents' 1977 Oldsmobile, which was the
first car I ever saw to have FM in the car.
