YIKES...
they were popular in the 50s lol
fj holdens had them probably a nasco accessory... lol
never seen one on a beetle
the beetle ones went on the side in front of the door...
main connector down low then another stabiliser connector up higher....
they can still be found..
but a bottom connector that bends at 90 degrees... ??

Don't like them. It looks like it puts a dent in the roof when you mount it.

Unforunately Your best bet would be thesamba.com,
None are cheap though, here a Hirshmann............
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=1084779
It's funny that someone can put up a specific wanted ad on here and then get replies from people with no idea about it telling them how they should
get a later beetle one or that it looks crap and puts a dent in the roof??
If you don't know what he's after why make a post??
FYI all split bugs built prior to Oct 1952 had a dimple in the roof for the antenna to mount.

I'm led to believe there are a few examples that don't  but generally
all do....
(based on some research from a very keen dubber)
would love to run the telefunken one when the time, radio and cash allows for it...
gotta get split popouts 1st thou - thats gonna hurt...!
that standard one looks good thou...
best of luck with the search...!

Thanks Guys,
Its just a shadow in that pic that makes it look like a dent.
So far from my research there was 3 brands made:
Telefunken
Hirschmann
Bosch
Repo Round (still trying to find who does these)
With all the aftermarket parts available you would have thought someone would have had a copy of these made at at normal price. Might have to look
into that, would be a substantial market worldwide.
Here they are in order above.

Yes, correct, further follow up its a dimple in the roof for the antenna to mount from manufacture.
