Leave an old-school AM/FM radio in dash. Have a RF (add-on) CD changer installed in the trunk, with just a remote up front. Fidelty won't be the greatest, but if the head unit is a reasonably decent one from back in the days, you should still be alright.

Another option is to go with an add-on CD changer that has the RCA outputs. Pipe that straight into an amp with a remote volume control, or put an external volume control on that, then go into an amp.

Otherwise say to hell with it and mount an under-dash box that lets you mount a standard DIN radio in it. It can be mostly out of sight, but still accessible to pop CDs and change tracks/stations/volume/etc. with a remote.
