Default radio reccomendations?

I have my ham ticket, and I'd like to outfit my car with a CB to
monitor CB as well - if only to listen in, or possibly more. I'm big
on keeping things organized on my car, and have a detachable face Icom
IC-208h with the head mounted where the ashtray was... and would like
to pull off something similar with a CB.

But, I can't seem to find a CB with a detachable face... the 79-290's
face detaches for theft protection, not to operate. So then I think of
getting the 75-822, and letting it scan in some inconspicuous location
with power from the car, and an antenna fed from the outside (all part
of the 'vehicle adapter'). I like it, because it also offers
portability... but, now I've got no SSB.

So - is there a 'full featured' CB available? Anyone have something to
reccommend (without flames)? If the detachable face isn't available,
what's a good CB with SSB and small size?

And, possible PA hookup and WX?

OK - YES, I realize that I'm asking for everything in one rig... scan,
ssb, detachable face (or small size), PA, WX... but I'm going to keep
looking... Anyone have any suggestions on the closest to this if
there's not one with it all?

Thanks,

Richard
