old216 Oil Can Mechanic Registered: 09/15/02 Posts: 733 Loc: Bracebridge Onatrio,Canada	I just purchased a 1938 Sedan as a project. It has a hole in the cowl in front of the windshield. Where was the correct location for the antenna? If this isn't correct I will fill it in with new metal. _________________________ My 1951 1 Ton is now on the road!

WOW _ This indicates the truck project has been completed The correct location for the antenna on a 1938 is under the runng boards (straps) or a roof top antenna that looks like a fish poll tied to the top. Most common now days to find a whip antenna attached to the side of the cowl. This is correct for a 1939 but not a 1938. This subject was discussed at length a month or so ago, perhaps you can find the thread. _________________________ Chevgene

I am having fun driving the truck. Last year I put 4000 miles on it going to events. Fred _________________________ My 1951 1 Ton is now on the road! My present project is a 1938 Master Town Sedan.
