Thanks!
Their catalog quotes $399. 
The reverb unit looks to be toast, but I will reserve judgement for a later date.
I will use the Reverb housing a knob for some other function if it proves to be unslavageable. 
The AM-FM radio on the other hand does not look too bad at all. It had about a 1/4" of mud laying across the bottom, but is not showing much in the way off corrosion or and electrical failure. I plan on washing it out tonighht and drying it. Then I'll let it sit for a week or so near my shop dehumidifier before seeing if it will function.
I've got a second one in the convertible to try out too. Maybe one of the two will fucntion till I get around to deciding if I want a real stereo in it.
   I'm going to have to start trying to scope out whether I have any hope of getting the power window motors functioning or not too.
   I'm curious if anyone knows the story of the power windows. Both doors on the car appear to be aoriginals, yet there are obvious signs that crank windows have been bolted in place as they use different holes in the doors and I can see where the star washers have dug into the metal. Yet from pulling the harnesses there is no doubt in my mind the car came with power windows as it would be impossible to mount the harness where it mounts without pulling the dash. I'm wondering if the car got crank windows for a while then was switched back or if they changed regulater designs at some point and swapp them out as I know they had problems with the early power windows.
