This product is an NOS Part.
NOS items are OEM parts from Ford that have been sitting on shelves or in warehouses for years. These are often great examples of the orignal parts, but they may have scratches or other shelf wear.
However be aware that some NOS parts are "service replacement" parts. "Service replacement" parts are not exact replacements of the parts that were installed at the factory, but are what Ford considered as "good enough" and were used at Ford dealerships after the original supply of parts was exhausted.
We often leave NOS product listings on our website after they sell for reference purposes.
NOS three part, telescoping, round base antenna. Comes with round ridged base gasket.
NOTE: Only one of these antennas (pictured) is in the original box, the others are in brown bags with labels. Once the first has shipped, the others will ship without the original Ford box.

"Aloha Don,
The antenna showed up with the rest of the USPS sent items. Got in here in three days.
Point of installation of antenna. Tie a string to the plug side of the
antenna assembly when pulling out from fender so that you can use the string to pull the new antenna plug back through the fender and into the car.
Thought of that after pulling antenna out. I was able to use a flexible
"pinching grabber tool" to pull a string up from the interior hole up through from the fender side.
Mahalo"
