The plurality of watertight ribs particularly limit the introduction of a liquid. Additionally, a base is disposed on the upper surface of the water-tight plate and has a screw part formed on a lower surface thereof. The screw part penetrates through the watertight plate and protrudes to an inner portion of the loop panel. A case is attached to an upper surface of the base and a ground nut is fastened to the screw part to fix the watertight plate and the base to the loop panel. The ground nut includes a plurality of sawteeth formed at an upper end thereof contact the loop panel. The vehicle loop antenna prevents a liquid from being introduced into an interior of a vehicle.
