Antenna Location 68 Shelbys Revisited

[Coralsnake]

It was mounted by AO Smith on all 1968 Shelbys, inside the left rocker

Interesting thread.  My Dec production '68 was purchased unmolested in '77.  Antenna is on left rear.  Curious to me as front and rear mounting may have different cable length.  If rear mount, I'd expect the cable would have been routed prior to carpet and seat install.

No with only the sill plate off the long coaxial cable can be fished to the trunk. As Coralsnake indicated the antenna coaxial cable was installed at AO Smith. Sometimes the dealers didn't make use of it . Some clueless dealers may not have been aware it was even there when installing the front fender antenna.
