I think someone posted a drilling template (one comes with the reproduction antenna sold by most parts vendors). The side cowl antenna was used on pre 1947 Advance-Design trucks, I think. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 Bubba - Curmudgeon | | Bubba - Curmudgeon Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 | | | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,115 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,115 | So if you look at the template, you will see the diameter of the hole. If you print it out, make sure that the hole on the template is the correct size on the paper. Also,the antenna goes on the driver's side. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 51 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 51 | Thanks, my panel came from a Texas oil rig service company, so they must have had a two way radio antenna on the right side which would explain the hole on the right
