Vintage wireless, I think they advertise in the magazines so you should get their details from the adverts section

Personally, I would have taken a guess that the correct radio for the Daimler would have been one of the 5 push button Radiomobiles. But it is only a guess.

I have a 1960s radio that was a factory fit in a Jaguar of that era. My friend was changing it for a modern radio and I had it to fit into a 1962 Daimler that I was restoring.

Usual story I sold the car before finishing it. The radio is a Motorola 727T with 5 push buttons made under licence in London by World Radio for Jaguar.

It is sitting on a shelf in my garage so make me an offer if you are interested in it.
