You can always make the "Loading Coil" that goes on the base of the antenna yourself. Just find fittings that will go between the base of the antenna and the mounting plate in the truck. Put some type of insulator between the two and rap enough resin coated copper wire around the insulator to make the overall length of wire plus antenna 9' "2.7M". This will give you a 1/4-wave antenna seeing how CB is broadcast in the 27Mhz range. Then just put some heat shrink on it and VIOLA.

It they are so rare not many people have seen them and probably wouldn't know if it was home made.

That's not the right cb for that truck the one you have is from a 80's van . The 8 track is just a ford 8 track the junk yard's are full of them but still nice . The cb mic for that truck belong's on the dash held on by a small clip along with the mic. Plug mounted to the bottom side of the dash.
