Default Radiomobile radio handcrank aerial

My 64 Mk2 had a handcrank controlled aerial for the radio. Unfortunately the control cable was cut and the aerial was broken. I am looking for parts. Does anyone have any parts with which they would be willing to part?

Thanks.

I might have the Cable, (repeat: might), a long cable with very strange connectors on each end, not the typical modern-antenna cable connectors; I found it behind the passenger's side kick panel, inside the fender/wing cavity when I needed to re-position the antenna assembly.

I removed this cable because it was not connected to anything, if you post a picture of the end-connectors in your cable, I can compare with the one I have. Otherwise when I purchased my '65 S type, it had an electric antenna which is definitely from the 1970's period.

Hi Jose,
Thank you for your response. I am traveling at the moment and will be back home on the 9th. I will take a photo when I get home and be back in touch. Thanks again!
