Default Shortwave for cars?

Has anyone seen any shortwave radios in cars lately?


What about one of the small mobile dc to daylight ham rigs? If you are a bit
creative, you can mount the rig in the trunk and stick a small control
panel in the passenger compartment.

Plus there were many that are no longer made that would do well, if you
can get them over there, or shipped to you.

I looked and like the radios but I am only looking for a receiver and
don't want to spend a ton of money. Also, any decent mobile should have
a noise blanker, not just a limiter. I did like the built in antenna
tuner but it seems a transmitter would be needed to optimize things.
Thanks,
