1972 142E factory radio 140-160

I believe my radio in my 142 it thrashed. It will come on but has only loud static on both am and fm and on both speakers, and individually when they are separated. Any tips on what to check before I take it out of the car? One thing I want to test is the antenna, I just need to find the extra one I have. I have seen ads seeking these radios so I assume failure is fairly common. Are they repairable? Just trying to keep it stock, but may have to upgrade. I would be interested in purchasing the exact radio if someone has one for sale. Thanks.
