Need help again. My 67 SS is a rear antenna car. Has had quarters replaced so I have no hole. I haved looked at a bunch of pictures but it is hard to tell about location. Also it appears that some are located in different spots. Can anyone tell me how to locate the correct spot? Thanks, Robert

Thanks for letting me know that some one reads my dum questions. I think I will get close and drill. If some one complains, I will say I have done the best I can. These old Novas sure are a blast to drive. I should have got one 30 years ago. I guess wisdom comes with age. Thanks again. Robert:thumbsup:

Center of antenna hole to end of body. {back where lense bolt on but bezel NOT included in measurement} is 28" 1/2 and 3" from center hole to side of Quarter panel. Antenna hole is in center of radius of trunk if that helps. Look at pictures and ask Questions if ya need to!!! Get that thing right so it looks great!!! :thumbsup:

Dave, A great big thank you. I know it takes time to get pictures and post them and I appreciate you that you did this for me. I now know where to put that old antenna. Again thanks.I know that this is probably not the right area of the site to say a few things, but here goes. I was invited to the Forge Muscle Car Show in Tenn. about 3 months back (67 Shelby GT500, June issue of Car Craft, page 80). I was a little scared to go because I thought the people there would be a little stuck up and I would feel out of place, but I braved up, loaded the old car and headed out. When I arrived, the Lopata family made me feel right at home. All the car people also where very down to earth and helpfull with any questions I asked. I met a fellow with an L-79 who was a big cutup and a ball of fun. (his car is in the new Muscle Car Review) . People actually laid on the floor with me to explain some details of their undercarriage (I am working on some other cars and always ask those dumb questions). I guess that what I am trying to say is thank you to every one in the car hobby, and its great to know that we all love the cars, and each other as one big family of friends. It is nice to be associated with people who will take pictures, post them, and be a big help to some one whose only connection to them is a love of the cars. That says a bunch about people who restore, and or drive the old hot rods of yesterday, today and tommorow. Well, If I have rambled on to much, I will try to do better. Buy the way, can any one tell me what color goes on the, WOOPS, there I go again. Every one have a great day, and thanks for letting me be a member on a great and helpfull site. Robert

It's all good Robert, if these guys got tired of people asking questions they would have banned me months ago.
