I almost got a Pontiac Bonneville with a installed phone back in the day. It wouldn't have really been worth it to activate it, save for the fact that it's installed in place so you can't lose it.

Someone needs to hack a car phone to work through bluetooth to a cellphone... that'd be DOPE!

for sure that would be pretty cool. or figure out some way to have it link to your house phone so if you're on the road it would still work.

Nope....analog is non-existent with all the major carriers. There are some private sytems out there, but none operated by any known/major provider.

The best you could do is a bluetooth hack to a modern cell phone.

NH and ME have analog cell phone providers called U.S. Cellular. It's the only service that works well there.

Take apart a bluetooth headset...as in a real headset, adapt it to the handheld cell and run it off of your own phone.
