One letter and you fall to pieces. I never said I was perfect, and I know
that you are not perfect.

Yes, it is what I have now. 1966 Corvette manual antenna did not
telescope down to base. When all the way down it sat 14 inchs up from the
one inch base. I am trying to find a atenna that will work as far as telescopeing
down to the base. A C3, dont know year, could work (so I read somewhere).
BUT, I dont know for sure.

This crap is why CF members try us out and then leave, at any rate, I put this flush mount to work just fine with my '61, no clue if it'll work in a C2

How did this turn out for you. Curious, as I too am not delighted with the stock C2 antenna design.

TIA.

Live well,

A lot of the members offered good advice a couple of bullshitters on this
forum are worthless.
Good news is after a lot of research and a lot of dead ends I found my
manual telescoping antenna at a custom shop in Calf.
It is installed and I am happy with the results.
