My 84 Couple came without an antenna and I am getting around to see the damage. Looks like the previous owner just left an antenna mast (???) and some cut wires. Does anyone know if their is suppose to be a mounting bracket for the antenna. I've picked up a complete upgrade antenna with abracket for modifications (???) or is it possible to use this braket for installation ????

Any ideas or help is greatly appreicated....

 

You have to use the bracket that came with the antenna and it should reach to the secure mounting point on the body from the bottom of the antenna. If I remember right, the mounting point is either in front or to the rear of the antenna. You have to bend the bracket in a streched "Z" type configuration to mount it. It might take a little playing with it to get it right. [8D]

 

Thanks mech, that saves me looking for a bracket. Will plug away at it. I never realized how badly I have 'Corvette Fever' till I started looking back at what I've been up to lately. This coupe of mine has really been abused. I started digging around in the wireing under the hood and it looks like there was a fire under there at one time and all the wiring on the passenger side has been spliced back together around the injector. I think someone unhooked the PCV valve at one time ( thanks for helping me with that one mech) and may have been the cause. She is starting to remind me of a marriage....for better or worse, I love her. Thanks again mech....sure am glad you are around for help.
