Re: Poll - Your Radio Antenna for 1971-1972 Chevy

After searching “Antenna” I found this thread to be the closest to the subject matter / question I have.

Is the antenna I removed factory? …… see pics and information below.
Part #’s on the nut: 3943656 and 181 300
Part #’s on the base: PMG 3979307
Fixed antenna: 31” long from tip of ball to the base of nut
Looks right to me

Part #’s on the nut: 3943656 and 181 300 Correct for low crown nut
Part #’s on the base: PMG 3979307 I'll have to check, but your base looks right
Fixed antenna: 31” long from tip of ball to the base of nut Couldn’t tell you

The chrome bezel should be stamped 3898672.

The ground “bezel” on that body slips off right? It’s part number 3898673, might be stamped.
