I'm doing a complete resto on my 69 and want to switch from a front fender mounted antenna to a rear mounted unit. Does anyone have the coordinates for the hole location? Any help is greatly appreciated!

BobMcC Jun 5th, 02, 6:09 PM The center of the hole in mine is 8" forward of the end of the quarter panel (where the tail light assembly bolts up), 2 - 3/8" to the right (looking forward) of the quarter panel lip crease at the trunk, and also 3 - 7/16 to the left (looking forward) of the fin crease in the quarter panel. Does that make sense? ------------------ Bob McCormick 69 Malibu project Chicony Jun 5th, 02, 7:21 PM Thanks Bob for the help. thillteamsource Jun 5th, 02, 10:40 PM Thanks to both of you guys. My 69 came with the hole in the rear quarter but nearly even with the top edge of the trunk. The front clip I bought also has the hole in the right front fender. I really wanted the "rear-rear" mount and now I have the info needed to cut a new hole. Dangit, now I have to fill two holes <silly grin> I love this site!!!

If anyone is interested, just E-mail me and I will send them on to you. ------------------ Bob McCormick 69 Malibu project jrb56 Jun 25th, 02, 5:33 PM Sorry to be jumping in late here - I have a rear mounted antenna, but the antenna part is gone. I will post a pic tonight - but I was wondering if there were non-telescoping options in 69, or if my antenna has been changed out - I have looked at the front fender, and there is no evidence of a hole.

I have no idea if it's original or not, but if you wish, I will take a picture of it and send it on to you. Just E-mail me to let me know. ------------------ Bob McCormick 69 Malibu project bb67H-D Jun 26th, 02, 8:48 PM Dennie Turner still sells NOS GM front & rear complete chevelle antenna assy. with coax, templates and mouting hardware. If you already have a good mast and assy then a correct pic and measurement should work. -------------- Brett '67 SS396 clone | ||
