Don't laugh, this is serious. Can any of you knowledgeable folk translate this for me? I rekon I might place a bid, if I can be sure what he is selling. My vocabulary goes as far as english, and only Australian english at that :). Thanks in advance, Mudness

Antenne presque complète ( ne manque que les brins ) pour véhicules U.S. Cette pièce est bien sur garantie bonne d'époque , et possède encore ses marquages . Trés bon état général pour un objet resté aux variations climatiques depuis 62 ans ! La base support en métal plié est marquée en creux sur le dessus : MP 50 . Dessous , marquage en rouge : Radiant Steel Products Co . et Williams ............ USA ( j'ai du mal a lire ce qui est marqué entre les deux ) L'antenne est marquée sur la porcelaine : Ohio Brass MP 48 A . Sur sa base métal : Ohio Brass . Certains endroits métalliques montrent des oxydations diverses selon que c'est du fer ou de l' alu . Le ressort est encore trés puissant . A signaler une égrenure sur la porcelaine , mais sans félure et ne change rien à l'intégrité de l' objet . Belle pièce totalement d'époque ; a repeindre peut-etre ; et qui permet de finir d'équiper un véhicule . Voir photos qui complètent la description , rien n'est caché , vous recevez ce que vous voyez . Enchérisseur n'ayant pas de compte-chèque en France , réglement par Mandat International .

Almost complete antenna (misses only the bits) for vehicles U.S. This part is well on good guarantee of time, and still has its markings. Trés good general state for an object remained with the climatic variations since 62 years! The base support out of folded metal is marked in hollow on the top: MP 50. Below, marking in red: Radiant Steel Products Co. and Williams............ The USA (I have evil has to read what is marked between the two) the antenna is marked on the porcelain: Ohio Brass MP 48 A. On its metal basis: Ohio Brass. Certain metal places show various oxidations according to whether it is iron or aluminum. The spring is still trés powerful. To announce a égrenure on the porcelain, but without félure and changes nothing with the integrity object. Beautiful part completely of time; has to perhaps repaint; and which makes it possible to finish equipping a vehicle. See photographs which supplement description, nothing is hidden, you receive what you see. Encherissor not having a account-cheque in France, réglement by International Mandate.
