Icon_confused: Anyone have an ad/photo/lit that shows a side cowl mounted antenna offered in 1933 or earlier.

Yrs back i restored a 1933 Chry. Phaeton that had 2 factory holes in the bodies structural wood that would be perfect for an antenna mount. At the time i talked to another guy restoring the same car and his had the same 2 holes. I know the closed cars had the roof/chicken wire antenna and there were the under running board but did some of the open cars get a side cowl.

Maybe the Antenna shown on this car

is factory. Photo was taken in the 50s.

IF can wire size and Rubber mounts?
Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
