radio antenna on HZ

[wbute]

I will go out on a limb here and say that in the mudgaurd was where Holden put them if ordered with a radio. Every one else put them in the roof because they looked better.

They must have still been optional/dealer fitted in 84 as my 84 WB has the roof aerial and it is in original condition. So if you are going for the factory AM radio I would say to put it in the guard.

This is another untouched original... antenna is as stated earlier..

thanks for posting that vanman, my next question was the style of mounting, whether they were straight up and down or ones that were on a ball that you could angle backwards?

From the two pics posted i guess they were just the simple straight up and down ones, with the angular type saved for roof mounting.

Thanks again guys, problem solved.

centre roof mounted aerials were an aftermarket item but you could order anything from your holden salesman so if you wanted centre type you got it...

gaurd mounted aerial was only with the radio..no radio no aerial....gaurd mounted aerial is on a ball and can be adjusted to tilt back slightly..

if you are after a factory correct aerial get jenny to take a picture of her knob....the one on the tip of the aerial..:errf:

they are different to aftermarket...
