Hello - I was wondering if anyone knows a vendor, or perhaps has for sale the knobs for a Telefunken Radio. My car is a 1953 Coupe.
Thanks

Knobs can easily be reproduced if an original can be copied. Anyone got an original? There are few people in the club who can reproduce it for you.

I have an original radio redone by Willie. It has original knobs, after the Heartland Holiday I could make available for copying. Rick in California cast a new set of quarter window knobs using my old one as a model.

Steve, if you are interested as Mark and James indicated we can make this happen for you if you wish. -Rick
P.S. James is this also the radio knob that you needed?

Mark, on an original radio what do the vertical push buttons do? I don't think they are presets but I don't know what they accomplish.

Rick, no the Telefunken and Blaupunkt knobs are a bit different. I need to get you my Blaupunkt knobs!

Re: Telefunken Radio Pre-A
I just got the car back from the upholsterers. Looked last night I think that the buttons are presets. I'm attaching an article from Hemming's on Telefunken. Also a picture of the car today. I am finishing up details and hope to take to Cedar rapids.
