You have got to love it when all you need to do is check EBay. Found a guy who rebuilds your core or sells outright a windup antenna for 53 up Studebakers. Ebay Item # 330390984897. Of course now I have to dig out the one I'm sure I have and check the condition of it and then decide if I want to keep and use it or sell it.
I have got to finish the wifes 47 mercury and get started on this Studebaker before I get much older and forget what I've got. Ha!!
