Classic/Antique Car Repair: wiring and antenna coaxial routing, Accessory wiring diagrams


Question
I am restoring a 1969 GTO and am trying to get a wiring diagram for installation of a rear power antenna. I can probably muddle through but would like to do it properly.I checked my 1969 service manual and body by Fisher manual but no luck. Wondering if you know where I can get one?
Thanks
Joe

Answer
You've already tried the two most likely sources.  If you've studied the rear body wiring diagram carefully without spotting the antenna lead in, you are probably out of luck.  

You could contact one of the auto literature dealers to see if they have an accessory installation manual.  If so, it may show how the car dealer was supposed to install the rear antenna, if it was an authorized factory accessory.  Most car companies provided installation instructions to the dealer for their use in installing accessories in cars.  This is not something most people would have saved or collected, but it's worth a try.

Contact Ed Faxon at www.faxonautolit.com - he may have what you are looking for.

Sorry I can't be more brilliant about this!
