Title: Antenna
Post by: oldgasser on 2016-04-15 17:20
Would anyone have a drawing of the front fender antenna location on the 57 Ford Convertible they could post?
Thank you for your time.
Ron.

Yes, but I'll have to dig it out. May take a day or so.

I have two Ford drawings that came with a Ford authorized repop front fender antenna. One is an 11 x 17 template that locates the hole, not sure how to get it posted, it is too big for my scanner.

Lynn if you could show the actual measurements that would help.  Obviously the top of the picture is the rear of the fender and the curved portion at the cowl.  How far is it from the rear of the fender to the center of the hole and how far from the right side of the drawing (inner fender edge I assume) to the center of the hole.

Thanks, Bill

The centerline of the hole is centered on the "fender crease line".  It is 11 1/2" from the cowl, actually looks to be line with the corner. I might can scan it in two pieces for the archives. Here is a photo of the other sheet
