I am installing the front fender mount antenna on my 64 nova but cant get the thing to stand straight, how do I adjust the mount to fix this? Thanks for any & all help.

I had the same problem on my 65 4 door. I was using an original 63 antenna but it wouldn't stand straight, so I had the hole filled, and mounted a power antenna inside the right rear quarter. Now I have an antenna, and I don't have to worry about anyone breaking it off. Good Luck with yours

Mine does the same thing and I've played with it forever and never got it any better. My wiring is pretty brittle, so I was thinking if I wrapped something around the wires, about 3-4 inches below the antenna mount, that would push the wire away from the inside, it would stand it up. I just haven't figured out what to use yet.
