If I was to make the Red tip for the Radio Aerial would people buy it for approx $3.00 plus postage.It would glue on.Your comments.
Cheers,
Graham ;)
:)G Day graham.
Yes mate i would buy 3 off you as long as you sell me the aerial to go with it.
Regards Leon. ;)
Graham,
i'll take one if you'll supply it in "Poo" colour ;)
Cheers,

Hi Graham
Shouldn't the tips be blue for a Nasco holden aerial?
Regards ACE :D
They came in both red and blue.Was that $3 as in Three or $30 . If it is $3 < I will take 3 . What colour you doing , If Both < Ill take three of each. Thats 6 . Did you get that , GOOD , cause I have confused myself
Hi Ace,
I am told the originals were Red,but if you know different I'm happy to be corrected.I have an original which Gary Claypole lent me and its red.I will only make 1 colour so we need to decide if its red or blue.And the price would be yes $3.00 approx.
cheers,
Graham :)
Graham Howdy. I'll take three. Thanks mate. Out of curiousity how will they attach... Kev..
Someone correct me if i'm wrong but i thought NASCO made 3 aerial tip colours Blue for Holden and red and green for Vauxhall and Chev (i can't remember which colour was for which
:P) I was told this years ago and always thought it was true.
ACE :D
p.s Graham. If you are going to do blue ones i'll have 2 THANKS.
Ill take 3 blue because both my fcs are blue
Hi.
I also thought the Holden ones were blue. They did go to Red for the HK HT HG range though. My ute has an original Diamond dot aerial & that has the blue tip (the ute was optioned with the manual radio & the aerial). There is also a Vauxhaul that is for sale down here with very low mileage. It has a green tip aerial, the first one I have seen. I would rather blue & would take 5, but would also take 5 if they were red.

Hi all,
I have a 1960 fb fitted with a red tip since new but will take whatever colour you are prepared to make Graham as I have just purchased an EK wagon with the tip broken off.
Cheers, Jason
Hey Graham,
I'll take one red or blue.
red to match the car or blue to keep in theme with period.. its modified so isnt crucial anyway!
Ed
I have to say that all the genuine Nasco aerials for FE/FC I have seen had blue tips.
It can be very confusing because there were AWA and HMV and other aerials all around the same period and some had steel tips, others had red tips etc.
For instance the guy on ebay who is selling what he states are early Holden aerials with red tips are CERTAINLY not Nasco aerials for FX through EK.
They may well be aerials for early Holdens, but I presume the majority of readers here are wanting Air Chief aerials, or at least to make the aerial they have as clos the an Air Chief aerial as they can

Hi.
A lot of the Tassie cars had metal ball tipped aerials from FE to EK. I have been told it was because they could get them cheaper & dealer installed them when they put the radios in. BUT, if you wanted a NASCO diamond dot aerial, you got it. Paid extra, but it was yours.
Rob
Also Graham,
you seem to have the knack for repo stuff. What about trying to re do the radio fascias? The black bits. I would take 2 at least, but probably 4 if the price was right.
Rob
Thanks Ken,
Being the Guru i knew you would know.I will make them Blue.As for your request Robbie to make Radio facia's if you have a good one i will look at it.
Regards,
Graham ;)
Hi Graham.
I will pull it out of the wagon & send it over so you can have a look. I am sure there will be a few others who are keen.
Regards,
Rob
Graham,Any further info. on the aerial tips or air chief fascia plate...Kev
Kev,
Still waiting on final pricing on the tips.Early days for the facia.
Regards,
Graham
Thanks Graham..Can't wait. I know they will be worth the wait like the rest of your work.Kev... :o ::)
