[DML] Re: Antenna question

[Mark Noeltner <mnoeltne@xxxx>]

Yup! This was just covered a few days ago with Mr. Espey adding some new
info. 

Very early cars had the windshield antenna, later cars had a fixed mast on
the right front fender, somewhere along the line they moved from a fixed
mast to a manual retractable mast (still in the front fender), then finally
to the power antenna in the left rear fender.

Some of the cars with the windshield antenna would have had the front
fender antenna installed at the dealer after the factory issued a service
bulletin on it. I don't have my book of bulletins handy or I'd give you the
VIN numbers it covered. It was mid 1981 IIRC.
