thinkin! did ma mopar offer this option?

I do have the picture somewhere. No stereo, no turn table, just AM radio. The two antennas were on each rear fender, and they were telescopic (sp). They were angled to the rear. I removed the cables from under my carpet that went to the antennas.

Of course my car Stan! How the heck do I have time to fix my car when I'm booked out until 2018? Or now I guess it's only until late 2017!

Can I have Stan's spot?

Spots on that list are even more desirable than GB season tickets !!

Guys in this joint would feel around inside the coffin if they thought the deceased wore a gold watch...

I found some pictures. They are pictures of a picture, I hope they come out.

Couple of kool pictures, where in NY were they taken? I'm thinking neither of the antennas are factory, 98.2% sure...

Upstate NY. Ticonderoga to be exact. Would they be on the build sheet if they were factory?

They look like the ones used on older mys, not sure which manufacturer I remember seeing them more often, guess GM, but could also be gerneric.

Early 60s Chevrolet for example.

They would be on the build sheet for sure but I checked the codes and didn't even see that extra antennas were available. I have a '68 parts book I could check as well.

Thanks Matt. My father bought the car from the mayor of Ticonderoga, and he used to put it in the parades. May have been installed at the dealer in Crown Point New York.

The Challenger T/A and AAR Cudas had rear mounted antennas.

That was because the fiberglass hoods wouldn't act as a static shield. A lesson learned in 69 with the A12 runners and supper Bee's.
The factory recemmended the antennas be mounted on the 1/4 panels with dealer installed radios.

It's bulletns like this that makes judges crazy........ There are documented cases of aluminum foil lined A12 hoods.
