I found my C10 AM with a high crown cap nut. I don't know where the mast came from. Word is these trucks came with high crown nuts with telescope masts, and low crown came with fixed masts. Personally I like the high crown with fixed mast, so I rebuilt the antenna as found adding a NOS fat ball fixed mast. That assembly was installed in 67 Corvettes.
Why wouldn't a fixed mast replacement install with your existing parts? Cosmetic? Unfortunately I don't have access to my truck for a pic.

Truck replacement, it would seem. Perhaps it would look odd with the tall nut, hmm.
