Rear Mounted Antennas for ’68
Short answer: The correct 1968 rear-mount antenna mast is a three-section, oval-shaped mast with an oval, grooved tip. There was no separate AM vs. AM/FM antenna for the Firebird — that is a Camaro/Chevy distinction.
Correct rear mast specs:
- Multi-section (3 sections), oval profile
- Oval tip with a groove
- Collapsed length: 19″ tip to tip
- Fully extended: 47¼”
- Mounting end is a threaded stud with an exposed nut that locks the mast with the oval facing front-to-rear (a “windcheater” design that also cut wind noise)
Reproduction bases and bezels are available, but there are no known correct reproduction masts. NOS masts for 1967–68 are model-specific and hard to find. (1969 is a different story, with a power mast also available.)
