    Knobs for a '56 wonderbar radio

    Can anyone share with me a place to locate the outside tuning knobs that backside tapers in order to miss the wings on the back knobs. I bought a pair from ebay and they do not have the taper backs. No catalog stores seem to have then. Thanks for anyone help. Bud

    Bud,
    As you know the '56 Corvette knobs were tapered in the back. I found myself in the same situation as you. Pick up two '56 Chevy headlight knobs (useally not to expensive nor scarce). Separate the rod from the knob. The back half of these can be cut off and mated to your ebay knobs via super glue. It helps if you have access to a lathe. Regards,
