The antenna used on the Jeeps in the movie were a 102" Whip antenna and were attached to the Radio Shack ball mount and grey antenna base.
The Radio Shack ball mount is a discontinued item and is hard to find. You can purchase a ball mount and paint it grey, but keep in mind that the Radio Shack ball and mount were slightly smaller. Therefore, if you go with a non-screen accurate base, it may be difficult to mount the Radio Shack one if you ever decide you want to go that route.
