Bareluy able to see them. That is cool. I noticed that he also has a radio antenna mounted on the bed of the truck. Is that the normal place they would go?

Antenna, no. Used by CB to communicate when we go places in convoys.

They had something I have seen that attached to the hood sidepanel

I originally had the WW2 antenna mast in there but it was a bit too tall and it was destroyed by trees
