Bill,

Not sure about the 74 but my 72 has a hole for the antenna just in front of 
the hole for the windshield on the top of the body, not on the fender. I have 
archived many 6 photos for reference and every one that has an antenna has it 
mounted in the same spot. Not sure of all these car years but always the same 
spot.

I have never seen one mounted on the fender as of yet.
