Can someone tell me the height of the power antenna mast when completely down and up?

65-66 Power Antenna Question

Does anyone know how to unseize the top portion of the antenna. I have an antenna that goes up and down but not all the way as the top portion of mast will not move.

Re: 65-66 Power Antenna Question

In looking at multiple photos of 66 vettes it appears the antenna does NOT retrack completely, but remains about a foot above the fender surface, probably due to the limited vertical space available under the fender surface for retraction........

You're correct Steve, about 13 1/2 " above the deck is as low as she goes.
