Can I get some help? Starduster Antenna?

[giggleloveswater]

My dad has a Starduster 3 and is trying with all he's got to find a diagram on how it goes together. It hasn't been put together in years and he's not even sure if he's got all of the parts. Can ANYONE help me out on this? Thanks!

I remember Starduster antennas from my CB days back in the 70's. Thanks for the memory.

My aluminum center element became corrded and separated from the center shaft on the base. I removed that and replaced with a new mobile mirror mount connections, spacer and a 102" whip, cut down ........back in buisness. My starduster is a good 35 years old now. Alive and kicking!!!
Of course it is now tuned for the 10 meter hamband.
