I broke my knob

edited November -1 in HUDSON
Okay folks, who makes the repro knobs for the antenna on a Hornet. Mine decided to come apart the other day when I turned the antenna down to clear a garage door. I think it may have been glued together in the past. Anyway, it is ivory colored plastic and I need a replacement. Any ideas on who has them?

    Harry-



    As far as I know, no one is repro-ing the knobs, themselves. Joe Stinnett in FL repros the antennas in stainless steel, which are nice pieces and look great. I would check with one of the Hudson parts suppliers, like Bill Albright, Lance Walker or Stu Coleman. They should have a used replacement.



    Speaking of those knobs and base plates, it's an excellent item to have re-popped. I'm sure any lot made would sell in short order.

    If it lays unclaimed, I'd be interested in it. Sending you a check tomorrow, Russ, let me know.
  • Russ, I would like a set, how much?

  • Last time I talked to Mike at Bill and Charles he had an Ivory coloured antenna knob. Have you tried him?

    You actually talked to him? Mike never returns e-mails or phone calls for me.
  • Not sure who you are talking about, Mike Who?
