6 volt by Bosch for what?
What is it? Anyone recognize it?
If I had known I would live this long I would have pushed the envelope a little harder.

No idea, but is it a fuel pump? Inlet and outlets? I only see one hose in the picture.

Is it an antenna lifter?

Re: 6 volt by Bosch for what?
I wondered about an antenna lifter but the hose is flexible and has a fitting like a compression fitting nut on the end. I shall take more pictures of it and the hose end. Maybe I should remove the access panel. I was really hoping someone would recognize what it was.

Is it a vacuum pump for power door locks? It has DIN wire colors, so you should be able to power it up.

Re: 6 volt by Bosch for what?
It only has a single hose? I thought air pump for a fish tank, but not likely for it to be 6V in that case.

Re: 6 volt by Bosch for what?
The item is apparently an electric antenna motor which is missing the vital antenna part. If someone needs it I am open to offers and I shall put it on the classifieds once I ascertain the operation or not of the motor.
Thanks Ken.

It is the motor for an electric antenna. These were made by Hirschmann but I have heard rumors about Bosch relabelling some of their products.now we have proof.

I now see a Hirschmann logo on the side of the unit -- here's David's photo enhanced to bring out the Hirschmann logo.

Re: 6 volt by Bosch for what?
Most probably it was Tony, I must have been on my way to Keeneland for the concours. I left late because I was not sure what the weather was going to do. What were you doing in Harrodsburg? Kind of out of the way for a drive to Louisville.

I have some family that lives down there. You don't see many 356's running around Kentucky so it was a nice surprise.
