Hey,

Just wondering who has their antenna shaved? Any pics? Is it worth doing? And if you got it done what did you put in place of the stock antenna?

I am getting my car painted in the spring and if I am going to do this I will have to do it then.

Let me know!

Thanks

I have a firend who shaved his antenna on his monte carlo. He bought this odd looking u shaped antenna that mounts under the rear of the car and is amped like 200 watts or somethign for cb/vhf/uhf/am/fm. I forget what its called or where to get it, i think cobra or someone makes it.

Radio Shack has one that is a thin wire that you tape to the inside of your windshield.

Nevermind...I did a search and sure enough this question was asked before. There is even a link to Radio Shack!! I think I will get one of these and see how it works before I weld/braze over the stock hole in the fender. If it works out I will post the board with my results!!

Thanks!!

 

I shaved the antenna on my show truck and used the radio shack antenna and ran it on the back side of the plastic A pillar molding. Looks a lot better without that antenna on the fender. I plan on doing the same thing with the car when I paint it.
