I haven't...only thing I've worked on close to a car radio was a Philco A-801 chairside which contains a Philco/Mopar chassis intended for Chrysler cars but converted for 115 volt AC use.
The process should be fairly straightforward, same as working on a home radio for the most part.
There may be one or two paper capacitors in the vibrator circuit that have a high working voltage on the order of 1000 or 1500 WVDC. Be sure you replace those with the same high working voltage as the originals (whatever the service manual calls for), not the typical 600/630 WVDC caps as they will fail if used in this circuit.
