Per request, here's what I have.....

1. SOLD...The AM/FM/CB mentioned in my other thread.

2. SOLD......NOS 79-82 AM/FM Slimline. Dated 86.This is NOT the 'GM service replacement' often sold as correct for these years. I THINK it may actually be correct for 81/82. Black housing, not beige. Had a few people say their original is black.
Got it from my local Chevy parts guy. He was cleaning up the stock room and lets me know when he finds something of interest.
I SUSPECT it was installed at one time and didn't work. Was removed, reboxed, and tossed up on the shelf to be forgotten.
Simply needed a new nylon cable installed. Runs great.
Direct bolt in/wire in. No connector, instructions simply say to cut and splice the wires:rotfl

3. SOLD...NOS 79-82 AM/FM slimline "GM service replacement". Dated 88.
This looks like the ones the vendors sell, but is actual GM/Delco, not a repro. These are often sold as 'correct' but are slightly different in appearance.
Same details as no 2, needed a nylon cable. Runs great.
ALMOST direct bolt in. Lower bracket may need a new hole drilled. Direct wire in, again no connector, needs to be spliced.
Also needs the co/ax connector from your old antenna swapped onto it(unless I find one first)

4. NOS 78/early79 AM/FM aluminum case.
This if flat out brand new, I still replaced the nylon cable, tho.
Added the hard to find Corvette upper bracket to the mast tube.
$200

5. ALMOST NOS 78/early 79 AM/FM aluminum case.
This WAS NOS when I sold it last year. Gave the guy his money back because "it didn't work".
Opened it up to find the motor burned out:rotfl Thanks BUBBA!
Finally found and replaced the armature, brushes and holder, and wiring harness.
Works and looks as new. Has the correct Corvette upper bracket installed.
This one doesn't have a connector, bubba cut it off:rotfland I haven't found another one. Needs to be spliced in.
$160

6. SOLD... Slightly used 78/early79 AM/FM aluminum case.
Got this from a kinda local guy I met at a cruise night.
He removed it from his 2000 mile 78 Pace Car back in 1999.
Didn't go down. He removed it and replaced it with a new one when you could still find these new.
Over the years in his garage the still extended mast got bent:rotfl
I replaced the mast sections with NOS and the nylon cable. Also had to replace the wiring harness as it had been cut off right at the motor.
Runs and looks as new.
This one would be the best bet for judging of the three I have.

Plus shipping for each.

More pics if anyone is interested in anything.

I also have a co/ax cable if anyone needs one and a few nice mast sections.

Also, with any purchase, I have two lower 78 brackets, a ground cable, and 2 of the upper black plastic bezels for the 78 fender opening.
 
Number 2 and 3 SOLD!

Still have the CB one and the aluminum housing ones:thumb
