If you had to pick a 40 SSB CB BASE purely on asthetics what would you choose?

I'll do one better and give them to you. Send me your complete shipping address in a private message. This bracket comes in 2 pcs. if I remember right.

Awesome, I will cover the shipping. Pm sent.

OK I'll dig them out tomorrow. I'm nurse-maiding a bad cold today.

I've always had a soft spot for a nice looking SBE Console V.

I like the mobile bracket. Cars used to have enough room to put one under the dashboard. Does anyone remember that?

Yes, this fit very easy under the dash of an old 70's station wagon with fake wood side panels..

My granddad actually had this Browning setup in his station wagon back in 1979. I just wish I had a picture to prove it.

People today are relatively spoiled when it comes to pictures, now about every 12 year old kid has a cell phone.
I often see the statement
" pictures or it never happened"
This was not the case back in the "70's when it required a real camera that was $100 plus film and development of it.
How I wish I had photos of stuff from back then.....

Like others, I am loyal to the one I own - a Realistic TRC 490 with a Turner Super Side Kick. It is in my banner. I purchased it in 1981 and it is still alive and kickin' and DXin!

Yeah that's the base station I tried to re-enter into CB again with because I heard they were good talkers, but unfortunately for me I bought 2 that needed work and didn't know anyone locale who could fix them. So I got upset and bought a new Galaxy DX 2547 from Bob's CB Shop and DX wasn't really Rolling so I kept on searching and ended up buying a Good Cobra 2000 with extra channels from ebay. Many radios Ago ! LOL

Ah... looks like someone woke up this thread.
Yep, I did love that Uniden Washington. But since this was posted, the Washington has found a new home in Delaware. I needed to sale a few to buy a few. That's how it goes....
