During the initial restoration of my car 20 years ago, I bought most of my parts from Miller’s Mercedes, who is still one of our suppliers here. At that time without much thought, I just got this no-name antenna that they supplied which functioned perfectly. It was only on for a couple of years before I found a new Hirschmann. The antenna presents as if it’s new. The aerial is as straight as an arrow no bends at all. It spent most of its life retracted or in a box.
$10 plus shipping
For those wondering, I have been trying to clean up some things in the garage and in storage, The result of restoring a Pagoda and all associated with that for the past 20 years and more, and the parts that I don’t think I’ll ever use are going up for sale.
