Quote: I believe the factory cowl mount antenna mounts through a single shield-shaped black plastic block fairly low on the cowl. Yesterday's Radio repro's the piece as I recall. The 120 coupe looks like it has an upper and lower mount, but as West says it's hard to tell from the photo.

It is clear in the photo that the cowl mount antenna is two piece and therefore incorrect - as is the senior bumper on this junior car.

Yes, the black plastic mounting block is available from Jerry at Yesterday's Radio. The chrome plated "spear-point" base of the antenna is available from Don/Dan Sommer at American Arrow in Clawson, MI. The 1940 base & spear are different from the 1941 base & spear. You can use about any radio mast to fit into the correct base.

Wish I had a photo of mine to show you.
