Coronet Antenna Recommendation

[JimKueneman]

Anyone recommend a reproduction antenna that will stay put for my '68 Coronet?

Thanks,
Jim

Jim,
Not exactly sure by what you mean in your post, unless you have had an issue with a previous reproduction. Yours should be a telescoping style and they are readily available through most of the larger vendors. I have not had an issue with the mast that we have sold, but some of the bezel nuts that screw down in the fender bezel do not work as they should. You might consider replating your original bezel and nut and usually the old antenna can be slightly buffed to look like new.

Thanks, but mine has a cheap aftermarket that won't stay put. My experience with aftermarket antennas is they will not say where you put them. The factory one had those "grabber" clips that dig into the fender to keep it from rotating.

So from the factory it should have a telescoping?
