Hello, Ed, welcome aboard.

If someone doesn't beat me to it, there is a 57 Dodge Technical Service Bulletin that shows precisely where to
cut the openings for the rear antennae.

The initial TSB talked/showed drilling a couple holes on each side of the car, but, a revised TSB showed that long
oval openings should be made into the upper quarter panels.

I presume that you have everything that you will need, in order to do this job, including the wiring & splitter, etc.?

Second antenna looks like '57-'58 Mercury front fender antenna.

The ones pictured on the car look just like the factory ones I have removed from '57-'58 Dodges and Plymouths.

Thanks for all the help. You guys are sure observant. The Dodge antenna, below, refused to stand up for me to illustrate locater point I was interested in. By the way, the antenna in the picture is for a 59 Impala.

You may think it's mucous, but, it's-snot.

That ain't a Dodge dual antenna base, up there.

Hope you don't mind if I ask a question here. Does someone make new extensions? I have 2 good bases, but one of the extensions has been cut and other is badly bent. Also, both cables have been cut off.
Any ideas?

The antenna that 57dodge has up there is the same as the ones I got from Johnny Rosen

Definately aftermarket.
