I know this ain't all that complicated but thought I would share it with everyone anyway..
After installing my new cat I thought it was about time to come up with a new place to mount my new CB antenna.
After kicking around all the usual point of mounting a antenna I came up with a brainstorm and set my mind to this design.
Next was to find the parts needed to do the job. Just so happens there's an old abandoned gas station down the road and I went over there looking for possible metal to build this mount.
After about 5 mins I found all the metal I thought that I was going to need to build the mount so I baroed my friends shop key welder and a can of black spray paint.
The mount was all done on the fly and from a thought in my mind so here's a couple pictures let me know what ya all think. Also keep in mind the parts were all free and just found laying around a just cleaned up then spray painted black.
If anyone is interested in the antenna I can get them for 50 bucks and will mail them out to you if you would like one. They work like a 102" whip with half the length.
