I have to remove, (unscrew) the antenna from the base on my 73 RR clone. They show a wrench turning it out in the FSM. The base of mine is a round piece of black plastic; wrench ain't gonna work! Wha gives???

Do you have a picture?

Also, is your antenna a single stage mast about 3 feet long?

Standard antenna wrench for B-Body in '70 at least looks castellated in appearance where it contacts the base.
 
Thanks, no picture as I am at work currently. It is a single stage. The black plastic base is shaped like a small cone or bullet. Maybe it slides up exposing what you described above. Here & there I find questionable things as the car is somewhat of a butcher job. Nothing surprises me.
 
is this it?

I wonder if your antenna is a aftermarket? Nut should show if a factory type. A pic would help.
 
I think it's aftermarket. Measures 30" tall. It's not real important. I was hoping to just unscrew the mast so I can put my car cover over it without messing with it.
