Are you willing to drill a hole in the roof? That would be the best place for a flush mount for omnidirectional field strength. I am guessing you aren't, so I would say use a trunk lip mount on the upper edge of the trunk right in the center, second choice would be on the passenger side. You are talking about non-gain 1/4 wave right? That would be about an 18 inch mast. Ever see the cop cars or Federal service cars with VHF lip mounts? Pretty clean installations if done carefully. Good luck.
(assuming you are talking about an Oldsmobile car)
