Where can I get the bottom part only of an NMO antenna so I can build my own? I want to build an antenna with an NMO mount. I have found them for 2/8-24, but not for NMO? Is there a place I can order? 
That was going to be my other suggestion. Not ideal, SO239 make lousy antenna mounts. Not designed to be waterproof at all.EDIT: Universal Radio also has a NMO to SO239 mount/adapter, if you want to build from that.
NMO to SO239
Few and far between, unfortunately.To clarify, I am looking for the connector part. Such as this.

Build your own antenna and put it in the base. In this case, a 3/8 24.
Yew'd think what with all the hams building stuff there'd be an NMO version?
I was wrong. It's not 5/16 x 18 thread. It's 5/16 x 24.Yew'd think what with all the hams building stuff there'd be an NMO version?
