These don’t look the factory ones. The factory masts don’t go all the way down and they have a support bracket that screw to the trunk floor.

They're replacements, not quite the original style.

I bought a pair of these a long time ago and they didn't fit on the fin well. They also wouldn't work with the original chrome part either. Pretty useless.

You'd pay $1200 for real ones . Ive had these on my 58 Desoto woth some home made brackets and they worked fine . Viper Guy I think you need to get a life instead of knocking everything .

Does anyone know what the original application for these were? Or are they aftermarket?

These are aftermarket but actually look pretty good if you make them fit the profile needed and give them the support in the trunk area. You can always pull them up a little to match the factory ones and it would be difficult to tell the difference at a glance.

Happy New Year!
