For whatever it's worth... Regarding MY 47 convertible.... It's a 'through the center of the windshield' antenna, with the inside knob to rotate it up or down. When I got my car, it came with numerous pictures of the car, before and during restoration. Some of these pictures go back MANY years, and I see that the center-mounted antenna has been there for a VERY long time. My guess is that it's been there 'forever'. And, I find no visible evidence (looking up inside) that there was ever a cowl-mounted antenna.
