From what I have read the "original" dealer-installed, fender mount antennas stuck out 8" when fully retracted. The reproduction Hirschmann's fully retract. Anyone here have one of these "original" antennas that they'd like to post a pic of? When the dealers were installing the radios/antennas, did they just reach for whatever was available, or did a certain antenna go with a certain radio? I have a Motorola Sapphire, and am curious as to what the proper antenna would be to accompany it.
Heres a pic of my radio. Plan to install it soon.  |

When I ordered my 1973 2 liter I ordered it with an AM/FM radio. When the car arrived and was ready for delivery, the dealer installed the exact same Sapphire radio you show at the beginning of this thread. The antenna the dealer installed was 30" long and non-retractable. My friend Ray with the '74 white/orange LE has the same radio with the same non-retractable antenna.
