Anyone have recommendations on the best source for a 1968 side mount chrome antenna?

Thanks in advance!

68 had a cowl mount, not a side mount.

I just picked on up this week from SoCal Auto Parts in Long Beach since it's not too far. They also sell it online, here's the link:

Thanks for the tip! They won't sell me just the antenna. Sad They have a minimum and that doesn't cover it.

Any other quality recommendations? Thanks!
