1965 Dodge Dart Charger

Thanks Dan and Kevin for your input.

After I took the pictures yesterday I was wondering when the staff at the assembly line mounted the antenna? From the picture on the station wagon it seems like the antenna was added to the fender and then the rubber boot was placed on the cable towards the body the wrong way! It looks like the hole was punched from the inside out. If they punched the hole it should have been a totally different rubber boot to cover the hole.

Some of the cars I have examin the staff punched or drilled the hole for the antenna cable from the outside and sometimes on the inside. In my opinion the rubber boot should be added in the punched hole from the outside of the body. In that case the boot would work properly.

I wonder if there has been a TSB for this matter? Any input is gladly appriciated.

TSB 65-54 Covers manual antenna installation and trimmer adjustment for full size cars. Very few Dart specific TSBs were issued for the 1965 model year.
