Hole in Body top by hood right side:

During disassemble, I noticed a hole just forward of the passenger window. It was covered over with what seemed to be a piece of thin aluminum foil, with filler and then painted over. It appears to be a hole for a radio antenna.

Any ideas if this could have been original, or add on? There is no radio in the dash, but there is a speaker with what appears a well used wire that went either to an antenna or a radio...don't know.

Also, any suggestions on rather to keep this and add an antenna (I don't have a radio now, but who knows about the future?), or cover it back up?
