A Lincoln car and an F-series/Bronco used a different antenna. That picture is a stock CB antenna for the truck or Bronco. There were no power antennas on the trucks/Bronco's and they also used a splitter.

Last one I seen on ebay hit close to 50 bucks. I personally would never pay that much for it but some don't know any better. Like they say a fool and his money are soon parted.
