Antenna Wire

[JohnC]

Good Morning all,

Can I get some advice on a replacement antenna wire? Anything compatible? Seems like mine is shredded where it connects to the antenna and I want to connect it before I reinstall the blower, the boot, the 4" hose etc. I already did the driver side and don't want to have to remove it all again just for the antenna wire?

Thanks all

The way they are made is that the center conductor tab actually rides on the antenna mast. It is possible to remove the two screws that holds the assembly to the tube, dissect it and change the shielded cable.

Hi Barry, the antenna wire is already seperated from the antenna. From what I can see, there is a hole, with threads, in the antenna where the wire would pass through and held in with some kind of nut. The end of the wire is all chewed up also thats why i inquired about a replacement. As you know, working on this antenna is not fun.

Pictures of what you have. With all the other odd work you’ve posted I have to see if what you have is original.

I knew your car was odd when a heater hose was hooked up to the vacuum chamber in the frame.
