65 antenna body

Post by jfreez »

I just picked up a NOS 65 antenna that is missing the body.
Does anyone have a picture of one or the page form an assembly manual that could help me make sure I find that right one to complete the kit?

If someone had a very nice one, I might be in the market.

BTW, its for the front.

Thanks

I have attached a section of the 1965 Corvair Assembly Manual that applies to the radio. I hope this helps.

in the pink picture above can you tell me the part number for item 4 (antenna body asm)?

It looks like this is the only part I am missing.


Thank you

looks like I found a repop that will work.

Would still prefer NOS, but at least I can use it now.

That Corvette repro is incorrect. The body is smaller.
